ABOUT ME
My names are Dancan Ijaa Idewa from Kengatunyi sub-location, Kocholya sub-location,Amagoro division,Teso Noth District-Busia county. Iwas born in 1976 and attended Kengatunyi Primary School and later joined Kolanya High School in the year 1993. After school I have practiced peasant farming which has enabled me to train in hairdressing. From the same farming, I also managed to save some money which I later used to set up a salon business to date.The business is sustaining my family and other farming activities ie horticulture farming. I have an intention of expanding the business to meet the large clientele base needed and this will enable me increase my business earnings.
ABOUT MY BUSINESS
I set up my salon business in December 2012 in Amagoro town along Uganda road. The same has been doing fairly well and I felt the need to source for more funds which i intend to use for the expansion of my business. The business has given me a lot of experience which I believe I can employ even in a bigger venture. I intend to increase the stock and open one more additional salon because of the ever increasing clientele base. The same has been growing fairly well despite the business challenges
I will use the loan to buy a blow drier. Blow drying is vital in a salon business. Currently I only have one dryer. An additional drier will enable me to cope with the growing customers. I will be able to wash and dry multiple clients thus be able to cater for a large number of customers. Currently with one dryer I am experiencing challenges because customers wait for a long time for their turn. Zidisha loan will be timely bearing in mind that with the growing customers I have been able to hire an additional help. The extra employee will be able to cater for the clients without being idle due to lack of the equipment.
However I am optimistic that my business will continue to grow and with zidisha lenders support I am able to achieve my business ambitions and growth.
