About Me

I am a single mother of an 14 year old boy, who has just sat for his primary education exams n needs to proceed to secondary school.

I am an outgoing person with an urge to prosper and be successful. I run a successful business in trading of consumables, and I believe in good health.

Recently I won an award as the best entrepreneur within my region and I intend to be the best in the coming years.

I like watching movies when am free and sometimes indulge in sporting activities.

My Business

I run a medium class grocery shop, that I want to stock further so that I can be a business to reckon with.

I thought of this business because I wanted to make money and continue to educate my son since am a single mother.

I intend to buy more fruits so that I can be the best supplier within my territory.

I have been in the business for the last two years and I have an urge to make it grow.

Loan Proposal

i want to buy a bycicle for my delivery boy to help supply fruits,juice and fresh vegetables to local hotels,this is going to help me raise my profit margin from ksh1000 to ksh 2000 per day. Im going to use the rest of the money to expand my storage space and to add the products that i dont have at the moment,im also going to add more fruits to make more juice for supplying,

    Hello Betty.
    Are you able to start making payments yet? If not, please get in touch with Zidisha to discuss adjusting your installments.
    God bless you,
    Wendy

    Hello Betty,
    I hope you are well. Any news on your payments?

  • Wendy Emlyn    Feb 6, 2016

    Can you get in touch with Zidisha to reduce your payments to a more manageable level? That is better than letting yourself get behind with your payments, which can make it harder to get future loans.
    God bless you,
    Wendy

    hi to all my lenders, im very greatfull for all your help, i have recieved my loan and i am going to use it wisely n hopefully help raise my weekly profit margin though my concern is why my loan has been deducted 10000ksh for loan security fund bt i still have to pay the full amount for my loan and the service fee of 3100ksh, so i got 53500 ksh bt im paying back 66600ksh thats a very huge amount to charge a small time business woman like me who is strugling to better her life. i am concerned.
