About Me

I grew up in a stable family with both parents present and 3siblings. As the years progressed paying school fees for all of us proved difficult for my folks and only the ones with the highest marks went on to college.
I took the entrepreneur route when I had my first child, and it has sustained us this far, she is 2yrs old now.
I earn enough money for getting new stock and shopping the most basic supplies for us.
I also like cosmetics and sell them online to my friends , my great taste in clothes and make up has ensured that I have a loyal customer base

My Business

I have always been the artistic one with in interest to create things,my interest in soap making started not too long ago and the more I've read about it, has my interest grown. I am currently a single mum and I took to selling second hand clothes from home to friends and family to support my baby's growing needs. However, my goal is to save enough money to take me to soap making training which will then take me a step further in towards my own home based soap making business.
My current clothes business brings up a profit of 50% or more and has been sufficient in sustaining me so far. A micro loan would be of great help in boosting my small business.

Loan Proposal

With this loan,I will be able to add a small batch of clothes that will give me good returns in. a short time so that I'm able to go for an even bigger batch to resell.
This is how my business works ,I buy the best and trendiest quality clothes and after cleaning and pressing,I resell at a profitable rate because of how presentable they look.

    I'm happy to report that I received the loan promptly and without any hustle! With the loan I was able to increase my stock and so far I have already made a profit of more than 30%.
    Thanks so much for introducing Zidisha to us small entrepreneurs. Through Zidisha you are empowering us and encouraging self employment. It's my hope that through on time repayment I will maintain a good relationship with you. Thank you!
