I am married with four kids, three boys and a girl. I dropped out of my secondary school education while in my first term (Form Two) due to lack of school fees. This was back in 2004. I decided to look for casual labours around my village where I managed to be employed by one lady who was involved in fruits selling.
Having worked and saved some little cash to start with, I decided to start a small business of selling vegetables at our Mbita down town market up to date and my family depends on this business since my husband is unemployed and only does casual labour without stable income.
I sell vegetables in Mbita down town market and this does well especially during market day and it is always on Thursday. My business is not big is a small one of about $200. I sell tomatoes, sukuma-wiki (kales),, potatoes, carrots, onions, peppers and cabbages. The loan that am applying will enable me to add more vegetables of different varieties and also add fruit business because I see they hard of my customers have asked me several times. This is what am planning to do with the loan as I look forward to growing and expanding in terms of business.
will use the loan to add more vegetables commodities and fruits of about $150. Inventory of eggs from indigenous hens of about $150 and eggs from layers of about $150. My customers have asked me eggs for a long time and I have promised my customers that i will be sellings eggs to them very soon. My plea to ZIDISHA Micro Finance Lenders, is that I will repay the loan on time as I intend to improve my credit rating and access more loans in future with ZIDISHA.
