This year has been full of promise u like last year that threw a lot of surprises my way. In kitale Kenya where I live, it is expected around this time of year that rains will gradually subside as we head into a dry season. However this year we have predictions of elnino rains which have spurred renewed interest in growing other crops after the maize that has just been harvested and is currently drying.
I am therefore doing more cabbages and beans in stages. I already have a crop beginning to head while a second is establishing. I also got three bean crops at different stages of growth the first one being at flowering stage already. I'm pushing to put two more cabbage crops into the works to be sold of late December or early January when markets should be good.
I will buy a bale of second hand clothing , men trousers and shirts and ladies dresses and a bale of second hand shoes for ladies. These goods have become in demand and should I buy and display them, the customers will buy quickly and I do realize my profits very fast. The bale of men's shirts which cost me ZMW 3500.00 will be able to give me the profit if ZMW 1350.00 and the bale of ladies dresses at a cost of ZMW 4000.00 will be able to give me ZMW 1600.00 therefore, my profit will increase steadily thank you my backers for your support in advance.
I thank you so much my dear backers, your support for me will go a long way, Therefore I will be able to buy food for my children and pay school fees for them.

It took long for me to finish repaying but indeed the results have been magnificent. And I’m committed to remain a Zidisha member to keep on improving my life and my community.

With the raised funds I have been able to increase revenue, expand my customer base and the eventual profitability and the increased earnings is helping in meeting business obligations with easy. This is also making it possible to pay it forward to other ZIDISHA members.
The most exciting aspect of my ZIDISHA experience is my achievement of taking my daughter to Mulungushi University to pursue her Law Degree.

This is a great achievement and calls for hard work for the business to grow to greater heights.

From the money I received last time, I bought Peatmoss, a medium used to propagate seedlings. I propagated 10,000 cabbage seedlings that we shall be transplanting to the open farm very soon.
Without the medium, I would have not been able to propagate the seedlings and I would have had to buy the seedlings from other farmers. This would have cost me 50,000 shillings ($333). With the medium I propagated up to 50,000 seedlings. This saved me $1,600!

I am very grateful to them and may God bless you and continue to support me more, thank you.

However due to the ensuing hard times in Kenya, my capital has gone down and would like to boost it by borrowing so that I can make supplies that are due to my customers. I am greatly inclined towards growing this business to create even more jobs for our youths who graduated and have no jobs because of the impenetrable job market.

Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania
Small market
Thank you very much for your support. I have bought a cart to distribute the products, so I have hired a young man. I am very grateful that you have saved two families. At the same time, my customers are happy that they are getting the products on time, but I still need your support so that I can develop and expand the business so that I can support the community around me and meet the needs. I am very grateful to them and may God bless you and continue to support me more, thank you.

Add locks to hardware shop
I have been able to build our business many times over. I have been able to employ about 3 permanent employees and 1 casual. However due to the ensuing hard times in Kenya, my capital has gone down and would like to boost it by borrowing so that I can make supplies that are due to my customers. I am greatly inclined towards growing this business to create even more jobs for our youths who graduated and have no jobs because of the impenetrable job market.
