About Me

Am a business lady and I am also a teacher of business studies. I did my trainings at immaculata visitation teacher's university and I completed in 2017. I have worked with stanbic bank as sales person. Now I am working for myself and am looking forward to expand my small business.

My Business

I have started a gaming centre where kids come and play video games. This an interactive play station for children of different age groups. The gaming center is a new and up comig business with a lot of potential.

Loan Proposal

I plan to continue the chicken business and expand it now. I was only purchasing 100 birds every two days, I now want to be purchasing 200 birds on a daily basis now. This is great business especially in this festive season chickens are on high demand and the are very fast moving.
I also intend to start construction on a piece of land i had acquired at the market to construct a small shop.

Income Source

The food business has not been affected by the covid pandemic and people still need to eat every day. In fact the chicken business is at its peak right now. The chicken business is making good profit that will allow me to make my weekly installment very well without a struggle at all.

    Thank you for the last loan. This loan was so helpful in the new business I have just started. I have started purchasing former layer chickens and reselling them.
    This is a very good business as the turn around time is very quick and very good.

    I will use the loan to purchase a deep fryer for my new out door eatery. This will help me in a way that,I will not have to let my customers wait for food anymore because a deep fryer will be making my business quicker than it is with the use of charcoal. Thank you lenders!

    Thank you for the last loan. I used the last loan to purchase stock for my stand. I purchased new stock for summer which has been a great hit. It was a great help with the stand and we are doing very well.
    Zidisha loans have really helped me propel my business forward.
