About Me

I am a man born on 21 May 1981. I completed my primary school at Chibelo Primary School and my senior secondary at Kabulonga Boys High School in the year 2001. I am the last born in the family of five, and I am the father of two.

My Business

I started the business in 2013. I basically repair mobile cell phones of all brands, fixing both hardware and software related problems. To work efficiently, I use professional tools and software.

I recently benefited from Zidisha loans: I have been able to use my business's increased profits and diversify into buying and selling used cell phones and importing good quality cell phone accessories, as inspired by my customers' needs and demands, as there has been overwhelming demand for the products.

Loan Proposal

Many thanks to the zidisha team and my lender’s for the loans you have given me in the past to help grow my business, with this growth there is also growing demand for the products and services that I offer to my customers. Therefore I am humbly requesting for another loan for me to order more goods to meet the demand of my customers and also to allow my business to grow further and increase my profits, thereby improving my wellbeing ,my family and those around me.below I have laid down how I will use the loan:
Assorted phone accessories……….................................$195
Used Phones(assorted)…………………………..…..................$300
Octoplus samsung activation(phone servicing tool)…….$89
As always I promise to commit to pay back the loan accordingly .I really hope that my lender's will give me another chance by funding my loan. Once again thank you so much zidisha team and all my lenders.
Thank you,
Alberto.

    Perfect score on repayment! Alberto's work is very important because of the high cost of cell phones and the dependence on cell phones for everything, including universal use in everyday transactions in markets and stores. This is an example of Africa leapfrogging over the obsolete technologies that still dominate the developed world, in this case old fashion cash and credit cards.
