About Me

I am Jostina, a mother of 2 young girls. I am married and living with my husband. I do business in my neighborhood where I sell car spare parts. My children are aged 4 and I year old and they have not yet decided what they aspire to be when they grow up.

I was born in central Kenya but later settled in Mombasa with my husband who does business in the same town.

My Business

I deal with sale of motor vehicle and motor bike spare parts. I normally sell them to mechanics and motor technicians who need to use them to repair the vehicles. The business is about 3 years old and it is showing a good future.

I am hoping to open more branches in future.

Loan Proposal

I will use the money to buy more motor vehicle parts. This time, I will buy 3 car batteries each costing USD50. These batteries are always in high demand and I am sure I will be able to sell them quickly and make a good profit of 30%.

I am slowly building my capacity and I am glad Zidisha is a reliable partner in this journey.

My business has gone down due to inaccessibility of my business premises following floods in the area. I will resume higher amounts soon when the condition improves. Thank you.

Hi Jostina,

How are you ?

I am a regular lender on Zidisha and also a manufacturer of Motercycle spare parts (front fork tube to be more specific).

I just wanted to ask you a few questions about the spare parts. Would you contact me on [email protected] if that is okay ?

Thanks,
Shalabh
