My Business

My business was established in 2003 as a very young boy people used to ask me whether I will make but now I am 11 years old in business sector.My business deals with shaving and phone accesories and on the other side I deal with transport .This business is very competitive but with me I do work odd hours when other competitors have gone home so here most customers are busy during the day time and odd hours is when they want my services especially rainy season.most people don't use motor cycle to their homes they prefer TUKTUK ESPECIALLY THIS TIME i do enjoy high profits.
There is always demand like waiting to see the next day,Most people in town have to go to work as well back at home in the evening and smart men shave their hair daily like in my place the soundings are institutions i.e schools,colleges and police station and Tanners factory I am located in a strategical point in that I am seen able
I am requesting this loan to purchase an extra shaving chair that will cost me Ksh 10,000 only.
I will pay my loan succesfuly since I have three different sources of income.
Best Regards to Zidisha Team

    Hi,This is to say great!The loan I received it has changed my dream to something different from a baba shop to a tuktuk business now the story is so different from what I used to I magine but now is real.Now I Have my own passenger vehicle and the rest assets are there making money.
    It is un imaginable aiming too high you end up doing nothing,I was determined to my small Berber shop changed to two sits I decided to purchase a PSV motorbike from the loan I received aerier I toped up and purchased a tuktuk from there I repaid the loan I received an increase that I am paying now.
    From this loan as I write now I purchased a small tax car that is paying me very well and I am sure from the profit that I will receive I will pay on time and get the next increment very soon I will purchase a heavy commercial vehicle.
    Zidisha loan is more than a dream,in our tradition we do believe that small medicine cures more than bigger.Regards be to Zidisha team,zidisha lenders and Zidisha mentors/volunteers who are doing a difficult job to see persons like me exell in small business to larger business. Thanks alot and be blessed.

    Hi Joseph,

    May I ask how many people you shave on a regular day and how much a client pays?
