About Me

I am Prince Yalley . A dietitian and an entrepreneur . Since my days in the University I have been involved in a couple of small business to help cater for school related resources and also make money on the side.

Moving to a new city comes with it nuances but I have been able to navigate through the storms and have completed my studies a registered dietitian.

Currently I with some friends are trying to build a private nutrition consultancy practice

My Business

Leveraging on my expert knowledge as a dietitian I with some friends have started a private nutrition consultancy practice. With this practice we offer nutrition consult to individual clients and also deliver health talk to faith based groups and corporate organisations. We have been able to secure some equipments for our services , however we operate remotely. This means clients book appointment and then we meet them at their offices and homes. Although this model generates some revenue we have lost clients along the way. We look forward through Zidisha to get a loan to support our existing budget to rent a shared office space in Diagnostic centre and also purchase additional equipments for our practice

Loan Proposal

I am currently working as dietetic intern and also assist people with nutrition counselling and education through health screening programmes and clinic visits.
There rise in nutrition related non communicable diseases such as diabetes, hypertension and obesity informed my decision to start this business and provide the need nutritonal consult for people at a fee.
I currently need to get purchase of body fat analyzer USD 100 , Seca Stadiometer USD 250 ,Glucometeter USD 100, Blood Pressure Monitor and also use the remaining funds for the daily running of the business .
We expect to make a profit of USD 100 weekly on
I hope to expand this business but currently we operate on home visits and private consults. We look forward to register the business and get a permanent location as our client base increases.
