My Business

Loan Proposal

Am planning to build a poultry structure as at the moment the one i have is temporary.Because of this predators like rats and cats keep attacking the small chicks .
Would also like to expand it as the one i have right now only accommodates less then 100 so am expecting to increase it to a capacity of 200 .
I would also like to raise the structure to avoid being dumpy during rainy season,i believe all this will help in improving the overall quality of produce as spacing and the warmth of the structure helps in preventing diseases in poultry.
If granted the loan, together with my savings i will be able to purchase sand,cement and stone to help in realizing my goal.
I do appreciate your support as m y life has never been the same since i joined zidisha
