About Me
I am a 23 year old 4th year law student from Zambia, the youngest in the family of 3. I started doing business to help with the expenses that come with Law school. As time went on my drive and entrepreneural skills grew. I have been doing business for 3 years now.
Though I have not been in business for many years, being a creative, resourceful, confident and driven person has helped me gain valuable experience needed in my line of business.
I am very computer literate, have outstanding verbal as well as written communication skills. I am also ambitious, honest, realistic and extremely level headed. I dream big and plan big.
My Business
I supply cleaning supplies to small lodges and shops around Lusaka. My main supplies are Pine gel and paper towels.
Most small lodges and shops in my neighbourhood have difficulties in accessing affordable yet quality cleaning supplies so I took that as an opportunity to start a business and started supplying them with Pine Gel and paper towels.
My typical costs go up to $220 and the revenue is $480
I use the profits to help with my Law school expenses.
I recently had my first born child so most of my capital went towards the expenses that come with the child. I am now looking forward to go back into business
Loan Proposal
I will Order quality and affordable pine gel and paper towels from south Africa and supply it to lodges and shops. This will cost me $220 and I will make $480 leaving me with a profit of $260 .The vision is to become the number 1,supplier of pine gel in Lusaka and eventually Zambia.
I recently had a child and so I ended up using most of my capital towards some unexpected hospital expenses. I am willing with your help to get back into business
