About Me

My names are Maureen aketch , am a firstborn in my family and started Zidisha before l got married but now am married with two kids. Zidisha has been a platform of my success. l was brought up in poverty, going to school was very tuff. making ends meet was real struggle, by but Gods grace a friend introduced me to Zidisha , n ever since things have never been the same. things grew from bad to better, I even afforded to take my siblings to school, since l started a business of selling second hand clothings for babies. l would source them from the local market and hack the clothes. the return was great and by the time l was taking my second loan, l got a shop and sold from there. l have a liking and great love for clothes and smartness. this inspired me so much. l got clients that were sent by other client, since l bought the best clothes, by the time I took my third loan l had introduced even diapers that l sent per piece, l notted that people could not buy the entire packet since my hood people hustle a lot. l just love my business.

My Business

my business is something that l have loved doing,I love it with my heart. it has grown from hawking, to a sizeable shop. The returns are great .The interest rate is almost 80% , there was a time my shop was broken in too, but God helped me and l picked up. l now want to buy bails, and open my self. by this l will hang the camera clothes ( the very smart ones) first class then the small ones sell cheaply and continue that way. the profit has enabled me, even employ a casual who stands in for me when l take the clothes to people in offices and even go to the market. l know God will touch your hearts and you lend me more, l grow and even pay my daughter fee.

Loan Proposal

Hi, lenders i want to thank you one more time for being my saviour in the business sector. i would really appreciate if you increase my loan to ksh. 18,096. this will be a great help to me for i have decided that that apart from selling the baby clothes i want to stock my shop with baby diapers. the place my shop is situated is for the low class, and buying diapers a whole pack is sometimes very tricky for them. so this is were i come , i will bring bails of different diapers of different sizes and from my research it will cost me like 100 dollars, this diapers will be sold in pieces and this will really serve people of my hood. when i do this each packet will earn me a 20% intrest. and this will be a great deal to my shop. the rest of the money which is 80 dollars, i will buy little plastic sandles for babies and children who are up to ten years of age. this sandles are normally very light and friendly especially to babies that are learning to walk. they are very cheap and this will increase the profit margin by 10% andthis will enable me go to a bigger shop for i know with God all things are possible. its my dream to be a very big shop with all things for babies because i love babies so much and i trust my taste when it comes to babies. i have done a lot of research were i will be getting my goods.so far i have captured quit a number of customers and i even deliver clothes for people in the houses. All i do is to take pictures of the clothes i have and send to my clients who choose what they like and i deliver,this has really contributed a lot to the growth of my shop. when customers cant reach you , reach them and that is what business is all about.just want to thank you in advance because with your help you are giving me wings to fly. may God bless you and increase your pockets so that you may continue building the
un privileged.
