About Me

My name is pascaline mburu, a wife and a business lady.i have three children and we live in Mombasa.i have been into business for the last 10 years and I can't complain.at first I was employed but that money was not enough.since I had three small babies.

My Business

I sell maize in bulk and I also sell mitumba clothes, specifically ladies dresses and blouses.i buy maize from farmers mostly in kitale , nyandarua, Molo and all over the country.i also sell mitumba blouses and dresses. If I get a loan I will take a store and store maize their so that clients may be coming to buy direct from the store. It's very tiring for a mother to travel around if you don't have a specific place to store your commodities. This business is good because it pays all my bills. Am very sure if I get a store I will do even better. Paying back the loan will not be a problem because it's a business that has good returns, thank you

Loan Proposal

Since the Pandemic is not yet over, I intend to buy a sack of potatoes to add to my onion business. My onion business has been doing well so far. I also added a few carrots and the profit was good. Now I want to add a sack of potatoes of which I know it will make good profits since I already have a client base.i sell from home and also do home deliveries.i will appreciate if I get the loan. Thank yoy

Income Source

I do home deliveries to earn money, of which I pay my bills with. If I get this loan I will be paying it with the profits I get. Apart from home deliveries, my neighbours also come to my house to buy what I sell. Am also doing part time online transcription and translation of which is also adding to my earnings. So iam very comfortable paying my loan,that's I even pay earlier than the time I have said. So in the coming weeks I will add more effort and pay my loans more efficiently.

    First , I was very sick and latter discharged, I even paid 5k coz I resumed work, immediately after paying that, my husband was admitted with cardiac arrest and diabetes and other complications. Since then his still in hospital, and this corona is making it worse coz the only person who is supposed to go visit him is me as his next of kin meaning I have to use ticket daily and I closed my business for a while until his back on his two feet.i kindly request you to allow me pay 500 until my things get back to normal. Thankbyou

Thank you lenders for believing in me, and I pray I will be able to pay my loan with no problems. Thank you

    Before the pandemic ,I used to sell maize in bulk.i used to take maize to miller's and schools,then covid19 struck.life was never the same again. My children were used to presents and good food from my profits. When covid19 struck, I was not paid since it just came unexpectedly,and schools were also closed . I had to think very fast coz now I was like jobless and all my money was with the people I take to the maize(miller's) and schools. I remembered ZIDISHA. I applied for the first loan which was too little and I decided to buy bundles of which I knew I had some clothes that I used to sell before I ventured into maize business. So I started advertising those clothes online and things changed for the better.i latter took a loan of 800 with that,I just related without using it and I latter got 2000. With that I bought 2 net of onions.from onions ,I made a bit of profit repaid my loan and was left with the 2000 of which I paid and got 4000 ,added more onions repaid and my young business started to grow. I again I applied for 10,500 of which this time I bought a bag of rice. So far so good, I can proudly sayi have the onions as my stock and rice, and I can afford a decent meal and some goodies for my children. Life is almost back to normal through Zidisha.Thank you so much, I don't know what I could have done if it was not for zidisha .
