My name is Richard Chitalu, I'm 25 years old. I come from a family of 12 and I'm the youngest. I grew up on the Copperbelt in Ndola, that is where i did my Business Administration course at Evelyn Hone College in Lusaka. I like learning new languages, interacting with different types of people. I'm a faster learner who is eager to adapt different business environments. I also like playing Squash, travelling and volunteering in youth development. I would like to start my own business in order to develop myself and contribute to the employment rate of my community.
I'm a part time coach, who attends to different clients at different times on a daily basis. I would like to get a loan in order to buy some squash equipments such as balls, head gear, rackets, shoes etc. As a provider of a service I believe that as soon as I get a Loan I will utilise it well, by investing the money in the Business by getting products which are on high demand, I'm very keen to learn from this experience in order to develop and sell some bigger and more advanced products and offerings in future. I plan also to improve youth sports opportunities in Lusaka by offering squash coaching academies to different ages of youths.
The loan will get me different types of Squash equipments, that will boost to my business because these squash equipments are hard to find in Zambia. My clients are requesting these equipments on a regular basis and I can purchase these equipments at a good rate and resell for a profit, which I will use to continue my studies in business administration. My goal is to one day study overseas and will continue to save money from my business to make my goal a reality.
