My Business

Since i am a mother of three children,I do all it takes to supplement my husband income by involving myself in small business of fast food restaurant right here at the Green-site Shopping Center.My involvement in practising the fast foods came in my minds early 2010,when i was laid off from the service in one of restaurant in town where i was working as an employee.This gave me a challenge as to why i have to be employed while i can do my own business.From the small saving i had,i approached my husband for more financial support so that i can venture in this industry.My husband is an understanding person and so he tried all he can and supported me with Kshs.30,000,in addition to kshs.50,000 i had from the savings.In total i started my restaurant with a capital of Kshs.80,000.This made me to look for a room and within no time i was able to get a double room at a strategic place for a restaurant.
This gave me a good start since i had an experience on the fast moving foods like chips,samosas,kebabs,sausages & smokies,chapatis and refreshments like sodas and bottled water.The business started with a high gear since most of my customers are the workers who operated in this road,neighbours,and passer-by customers.This made me to look for another 2 more workers whom even todate we are working together as team in satisfying my customers with their favourite dishes.
Since then,the business has grown more and that is why i have been willing to introduce more African dishes like ugali,githeri,pilau among other delicious foods.That is why i came to your rescue in Zidisha Microfinance for support with some capital boost so that i can buy the raw foods for the preparing the delicacies.I believe that since the center is growing in population,i am convinced that i can handle more customers in one sitting since the room has a sitting capacity of 30 customers at once.Currently in a week,i do get a profit of between Kshs.10,000 to Kshs.15,000.This will make me target more sales and i can assure the whole Zidisha fraternity and the lenders that from the profit i now gets from the current sales i can comfortably service my loan in weekly basis and on time.Thank you in advance for the support and God bless you all.
