About Me

My name Eneya Nalungwe born in 1980 in Lusaka Garden House. I completed my grade 12 level in Mufirila ,copperbelt pronvice where i was staying with my auntie after the passing on of my parents. I have to struggle moving up and down looking for the money for my school fees, until i finally met my friend who asked me to help her with her business. I leant alot in her business of selling second hand clothes and she also helped me to pay for my exams, until i completed. I am now married with 2 children but my husband has not been getting enough to support the family. So i had to look for some money and opened a business i knew better.I love playing with children and take them to jumbing castles and boat riding.Zambia is a good country it has been peaceful since independence.

My Business

I am currently selling second hand clothes called "Salaula" in our local language. its a good business where our community are able to have there cheap clothing of their choice. I am more experienced now since i know what type of clothing they want. In one bandle of Salaula, i am able to make $400 after spending $150 as capital. I have seen it to be growing fast and i think it will help me and the entire family with school issues which has been a problem to everyone, and non of us in the family has never been to college. so i am asking Zidisha to help so that i can manage to send my siblings to college and myself too.Hence i want to go to Tanzania's Darlasalaam to buy mini container of second hand clothing so that i can increase daily revenue as well helping my family financially.

Loan Proposal

i need USD 1000 to help me improve the standard of our house and expansion of my second hand clothing which is doing well.I need to buy building sandy at USD 150, I need to buy blocks at USD 300 and also bags of cement at USD 70.However, i to need grow the business i want to rent a bigger warehouse for keeping bundles of second hand clothing which will cost USD 450 to ensure that i expand the business to earn revenue, i want to employer 5 helpers now to be helping me due the expansion of the business.The profits shall be used to also improve other business affairs and also helping family members who do not go to school.

    I was surprised to see this loan paid off in less than two months when it was scheduled to take ten months. I am pleased that your business is going so well.
