About Me

I am an avid entrepreneur who is seeking funding to finance my food business project to better my life and those around me.I come from a humble background but as a firm believer of persistence and hard work I have been able to accomplish great things and upgrade my life and those around me by providing a steady source of income and ultimately, better quality of life. No human is limited.

My Business

I have a catering business where I provide food and beverages for various events including weddings, children parties, and other functions. During weekdays, I also deliver packed affordable lunch in clients offices to supplement my income. The previous funding received from Zidisha lenders has seen my business grow from serving 30 pax to a higher capacity of 100 in three months. The funding was used to expand my kitchen and upgrade my equipment to commercial scale. I am now looking to diversify my income to include baking. This is an opportunity to expand my business and increase my workforce to deliver the highest quality and variety of food services.

Loan Proposal

I would like to purchase an oven. I currently cater to about 50 people per weekend since I use only one oven and charcoal jikos. The loan would allow me to purchase an oven and I will be in a position to cater to more than 100 people.I am forced to turn down business opportunities since I dont have the capacity to cook for more clients or large events.The extra cash will go towards a worthy cause...three special needs children. I am raising a special needs child since my son is autistic and the extra cash will help in paying for therapy and purchasing supplements for my son and two nieces who have a similar condition.

    Disappointed with the repayments stopping half way through and no response to my enquiry via the discussion board.
