About Me

My name is Flavian Adhiambo. I am 21years old. I am the first born in a family of five. I live in Mombasa in a town called Mazeras. I own a small personal business where I sell female clothes and beauty products. I started this business so as to make profit to expand it. I also contribute in charity work in various orphanages in my community. I purchase more business products from the earnings of my business and use part of it to cater for my personal effects.
Zidisha micro finance is very convenient as it enables any ambitious individual to acquire money from potential lenders to improve their small businesses and even make them grow. From the earnings obtained from an individuals particular business, he/she is also able to improve their ways of living and to also uplift others by informing them about its benefits and advising them to join Zidisha as well.

My Business

My business is located at Mazeras shopping centre. The source of income that I will use to repay the loan with, will be from the savings I have made so far from the earnings of the business and also from the later made profit made from the business. my business provides the latest women's clothing which are fashionable and suit their preferences. Beauty products are considered as ladies best friends and therefore there is so much demand for these goods and products. My customers prefer my business to the competition because I always interact well with them and also meet with their needs and demands. in terms of orders I always deliver on time. The business is profitable because I clear my stock frequently due to the high demand of products. My business though faces risks such as shoplifting due to overcrowding of customers on different occasions. My typical monthly costs add up to ten thousand, my sales revenue add up to fifteen thousand and my profits range between eight thousand and ten thousand.

Loan Proposal

I need to purchase more business products for more earnings of my business and cater for my personal effects also.

From the earnings obtained from this particular business, I will be able to improve my way of living and to also uplift others around me and inform many about zidisha's benefits and advising them to join Zidisha as well.

    I kindly request oncemore to reschedule as things are abit tough for me as per now. Actually things are really tough for me in terms of I being a student and not getting the right person to run my business. I am currently on attachment which is not paid one. So am really having it rough financially. But I hoe God will intervene in my situation to be able to pay the loan. Thank you and God bless you all for the patience.

    I wish to request postponement and re adjust my payment of the loan./ This is due to the low times I am going through right now. My business has been very slow in such away that I almost gave up. But thanks I did not and I promise to give in my all to ensure it stands and repay the loan you willingly gave to me. Thank you so much for understanding and being patient with me.

    I think 14 weeks is too short a time. I need a more comfortable repayment schedule. I believe a repayment of Ksh500 per week will give me enough time to grow my business and stabilize my income. I hope you bear with me. I had high hopes but business is dragging in progress and i want to maintain higher repayment rate.
