I started doing small business of selling cloths in small market which is nearby where I stay.
I have one Kid who is in standard one.I am a single parent.
Since I received my first loan I started this business of selling cloths has boosted me to do various projects,I have bought my self a small kiosk by the road side where I have put my cloths now I am not moving to different markets during the market days.This one has enabled me to pay back the loan and as well bought a kiosk where now I am not that mobile.

My Business

I started my business the year 2009,my business name is BOUTIQUE YA MAMA it is located in kenlands opposite relax in restaurant i sell cloths for children and women.this one has enabled me to grow since most of my clients are women.I do buy my goods localy hence becomes more expensive than when buying in bulky,like now I have been requested by some of my clients to suply them with school uniforms as well as men's cloths,I have bought materials and now what I need is two sewing machines which will enable me to make school uniforms which are now at high demand.

Loan Proposal

    Dear all,
    I hope this message finds you all in good health. I have been not feeling well for quite some time and hence I have experiencing difficulties in repaying my repayments. I have also seen it important to reschedule my loan to KES 300, but with time I will resume to my normal repayments and hopefully God will be on my favor.
    Thank you
    God Bless you abundantly

    Hello Zidisha team and lenders,
    Please due to inflation in our country and there is no enough many people who are my customers are tending to use more on food other than doing business which has made my business to flow slowly hence no profits to pay my loans which has made me to reschedule my loans to the repayments of KES 500.
