Hello Raoul Am very grateful for showing much interest in my business. To start with the revenue per client depends on the quantity of water each client use especially those who pays it monthly. Also my total monthly revenue is not fixed. It increases depending on the season and the more expansions I make. Again I do have some operational expenses . For instance , the use of electricity to pump water, repairs of leaking and damaged pipes, the cost involved in expanding to neighboring houses and the cost involved in hiring people to monitor the flow of water. Thanks for your care and your concerns for my business. Am really appreciative of your support.

Thank you Laurie and sorry for late reply. Yes i do the same but sometime i bake as per client's requirement. For clients who don't mind sugar i put for them but mostly my clients are people who are on a healthy living diet, medical conditions, and also make organic juices for them. My most selling juice is a jackfruit mixed with soursop, mixture of tamarind and cardamom which has good number of health benefits.

I used my previous loan to purchase a microwave and a 4 burner cooker for my hotel, these two kitchen appliances helped to make the work in the kitchen so easy, it has also helped to save time because now our visitors dont have to waste alot of time waiting for their food to be served, i have seen great changes in my hotel especially the restaurant area, alot of guests are now ordering for food without the fear of having to wait for long before being served like it was before, we now serve our food at the shortest time possible i am so grateful. This has also helped to increase my profit from 5-10% previoisly to 50% which is a big hurrey, thr kitchen is now self reliable, i have purchased new stuff for the kitchen, new plates, food warmers for buffet, cups and glasses, and most importantly is that i can now pay my kitchen staff with the money generated from the restaurant, its amazing. Thank you so much my worthy lenders you are the best, Long live Zidisha.comment image

Hello Esther. We do solar cooking in the UK - we even cooked bread in the middle of winter using just sunshine and mirrors! It's much more powerful in Kenya than the UK. It's not electric, it simply concentrates heat from the sun using something reflective. A solar cooker can even be made out of aluminium foil and cardboard, but most people don't know about this. Kenya is the country with the most solar cooking activity in Africa. If you'd like to know more, the solar cooking wiki has a lot of info. Here's their Kenya page: http://solarcooking.wikia.com/wiki/Kenya One organisation involved is: NAREWAMA Natural Resources and Waste Management Alliance P. O. Box 60358-00200 Uhuru Phase IV (Jerusalem Shopping Centre) Nairobi Kenya http://www.mueller-solartechnik.com/narewama/

Congratulations on your business and thank you for welcoming us with your wonderful smiles every time we log into Zidisha! I am glad to see you providing propane to your customers since it is so much cleaner and healthier than wood or charcoal. I would very much appreciate any information or opinion you have on solar energy: solar cookers, solar lamps and solar panels. Can you tell me if your customers are connected to centralized electricity? I wish you great success with your business and charming family.

Dear Lenders, I am humbled by your generosity and kindness towards funding my loan. I received the total amount and over the last one week I've put it to good use by finishing final touches to the shop and buying a frying machine, display counter and freezer. After the licensing process is done we will open doors to the snack cafe officially and right on time for school holidays. This business will be run by my wife and elder sister and this will keep both busy at the same time bringing extra revenue to two families. I am confident with the extra profit this new business will earn I will be able to repay my loan on time. Once again I thank you for your contributions and and I pray you be truly blessed.

Hello Zidisha The financial support you've been giving me is making me strong even though we are facing a very long draught in Kenya. The lands are very dry, water sources dried up. But I have hope the rain will drop very soon and my project will go on well though the demand for vegetables is very high but the the farm is not giving the good quality due to the current climate status. I am now preparing one side of the land ready for the rainy season Thank you
