Terima Kasih kepada Zidisha dan para pendana yang telah mendanai pinjaman saya melalui zidisha, Dengan adanya bantuan pinjaman dari zidisha sekarang usaha saya telah mulai berkembang, yang sebelumnya hanya memiliki 2 orang pedagang keliling sekarang saya telah memiliki 5 orang pedagang keliling, dan omset penjualan saya meningkat lebih dari dua kali lipat dari sebelumnya. Dan saya sangat bersyukur karena melalui usaha saya sebagai pengepul roti bisa memberdayakan orang yang sedang membutuhkan pekerjaan. semoga usaha saya bisa terus berkembang dan bisa semakin bermanfaat.
Sekali lagi saya ucapkan terima kasih banyak kepada zidisha dan para pendana.

Having joined Zidisha without prior endorsement by an existing Zidisha member and due to the Zidisha loan conditions that a certain fraction of the loan be retained as security as well as the Zidisha membership fee, I can only say at this moment that the loan advanced to me only secured for me a Zidisha membership. I was unable to use it to advance my business.

However, I am glad to be part of the Zidisha community as having no tangible assets, a major challenge for me has always being accessing credit facilities from banks to grow my business.

I believe that in the long run, Zidisha will enable me achieve my dream of setting up an open air drip irrigation demonstration farm in Taveta Kenya. The open air drip irrigation demonstration farm will come in handy not only in demonstrating how effective my wetting agent "super gro" is in assisting plant growth but will also demonstrate and train farmers on the effective use of drip irrigation as a way to grow crops in relatively dry areas. I already have 2 acres of land where i intend to set up the demonstration farm.

Once I finish paying off my current loan, I intend to use my next loan to stock up on gunny bags. Gunny bags are a quick sale for me and are useful in maintaining my cash flow position. I will then be in a position to buy more stocks of super gro.

I bought some cosmetics .
the quantity of the products has increased at my shop and as well as profit has also increased by 25%.
i used the profit to re-purchased products in order to keep on increasing my profit percentage.

My dear Lenders, first is to give my sincere thanks for the loan you entrusted me with. I feel so happy whenever l look at the iron box l got using the loan beside adding a reasonable stock. For sure, l've seen my business grow from just a mere shop to one my clients will love to be associated with. Thanks once again as you prepare to walk with me again towards achieving my dream. God bless and give you good health.

Sounds like you really have a full life and enjoy it! That's wonderful. I'm going off to Scotland in a few days to see one of my daughters and her family. A 10 hour train journey! :( I hope that it will be sunny there as they've had lots of rain and floods recently. The family do have fruit trees and a vegetable garden, but no chickens! My son-in-law has a very technical job but loves baking cakes and making jam.

Very best wishes
Isabella

Hello my esteemed lenders, thank you very much for funding my project.
when I get my next loan, I will advance my barber shop to look executive and elegant by adding more equipment and extra services. I will buy a bigger mirror, a massage chair, better towels, after shave hair removal cream and increase lighting while doing a bit of interior designs and aesthetic.
The loan will go towards financing one of the most robust and advanced modern shaving machines and it accessories.
The modern machines will cost me at a cost of $126.00, a set of four adjustable machines combined with accessories.
I will also buy another electric Kettle at a cost of $11.00 & 4 sets of towels at a cost of $28.00.
I will also buy a bigger mirror at a cost of $38.00 and do interior décor at a cost of $25.00.
I will buy two new adjustable chairs at a cost of $26.00.
Also on the list will be two dust coats, after shave gel, surgical spirit and increase lighting bulb all at a cost of $30.00.
Now, all this will make me start charging $1.00 per person, double the previous price.
With my assistant this will greatly helped me to do Shaving more quickly and conveniently. These machines will save me unnecessary cost of maintenance and frequent break down of the previous machine while at shaving.
On the side of my profit and income, I will start making double of the money I was getting earlier. I focus to be taking home a cool USD 100.00 per week up from the previous USD 35.00.
This way, I will have given back to the society by created a job opportunity to another person and help them put food on their table.

I have always loved the great migration in Maasai Mara....the activities that follow are so amazing with predators following prey, birds of prey hovering above...millions of live birth of the wilderbeast....the best thing you need is a camera and patience.....I used to work in Maasai Mara as a driver-guide.
