About Me

I am a media practitioner in Zambia aged 27, certified in Radio Production and i have about seven (7) years of work experience in that field.

I am now homeless and broke. Life has not been easy, am now surviving on about a dollar or less per day.

I am hoping to have a change of business plans, as already strategized, only that financing has been so hard to come by in spite of every effort I am personally pushing in.

My Business

So far, I have managed to secure a stall for food on the street.

Also, I have managed to secure all the equipment I need to have the business start running successfully.

However, I am still looking to raise money to buy the edible material for starters so we can starting preparing our food for sale on the street.

The strategic food I want to be selling on the street is chappati, seeing it is marketable in the environment I want to be operating from

Loan Proposal

With this loan, i will improve the stock levels of my shop.
A4 reams of paper are on budget, about six of them.
I also want to purchase a stapler, staples, gillitin and a whole puncher, all costing around $290.
Once funded, i will be able to expand the business while providing services to college students within the area, and meeting the demand within my immediate community, due to scarcity of such services in the area.

    I am now homeless. No food and struggling. It has been hard for me, that's why am adjusting the loan repayment plan.

    Hi Zidisha Team and the lenders,
    Honestly,I talked to Steven Phiri this afternoon although the network was not clear since ,he was on bus going to Monze but he promised me,that he will be in touch with me once he gets where he can communicate properly with me.
    I hope this will be understood now.
    Kind regards,
    Kingford.

    Thanks a Billion to my lender, Paul Bucheit.
    The loan in itself will be a stepping stone for me to advance my business plan.
    Specifically, i will use the loan for the purchase of three (3) reams of paper, for a stationery and photocopying shop initiative.
    Much appreciated!
