I STARTED MY BUSINESS 3 YEARS AGO .IT IS LOCATED IN EMAKASI.I SELL MOBILE PHONES.I DO PHOTOCOPY SERVICES,I ALSO SELL CREDIT CARDS.THERE I ALOT OF DEMAND FOR THESE PRODUCTS AS MOBILE PHONE IS THE MAIN TOOL OF COMMUNICATION.MY CLIENTS PREFER MY BUSINESS BECAUSE I AM FRIENDLY, I SELL QUALITY PRODUCTS AND I HAVE EMPLOYED SOMEONE TO DO SOME REPAIR WORK SHOULD THEY ENCOUNTER ANY PROBLEMS AT A REDUCED FEE .THE MAIN CHALLENGE NOW IS COUNTERFEIT PRODUCTS IN THE COUNTRY . TYPICAL MONTHLY PROFIT IS 40 THOUSAND COST IS AROUND 20 THOUSAND MY SALARY ALSO SUPPLEMENTS MY INCOME THAT WILL HELP ME REPAY THE LOAN.
I am planning to start poultry butchery where i can be selling eggs together with chicken parts including gizzards,meat .liver .and the rest. i have identified a manageable source of supply but my current house is very small.if my second loan is funded i plan to expand the house so that i l be able purchase in large quantities so as to reduce the cost of production.I also plan to buy a freezer which will assist in storage of already packaged meat .currently i sell chicken and chicks as a whole but i thick opening a shop will help in maximizing profit .i also plan to build a permanent house as the mabati one is not very conducive during the rainy season in the future.am very grateful to zidisha for making me realize my dream.God bless.
