My Business
Sadida Restaurant located in Kisumu Kenya is a business that serves african dishes on its menu for example omena and ugali,osuga and ugali,white rice and beans,githeri(mixture of beand and maize).People prefer african dishes because they dont love fast foods like potato deepfried chips since its not healthy.It started two years ago and so far it has grown tremendously since there is no other decent restaurant in the whole of that market.My typical costs are salaries,house rent,electricity and water bills,and food restocking.The revenue is KES 250,000 in a month on average.
I believe that zidisha will assist me purchase more catering equipment for outside catering services since thats a need right now.For weddings,funerals and birthday parties.I use the profits to pay bills,school fees for myself since am finalizing in my degree course and currently am working on opening its branch in the city centre.
