Hello lenders, After receiving my first loan i boosted my business,i have supported my mother,buying food and catering for her. Below is the exact items i bought with the loan; I bought maize floor one sack at a cost of USD 26.00. Also i added Beans and Green grams at a cost of USD,11.00 and USD,13.00 respectively. I added more Milk at a cost of USD 3.00 . This has been giving me a lot of profit because these products are commonly fast moving than any other since they are food products. My customers have been assured of getting the stock of what they need at all the time. My profit increased considerably from the previous $20.00 to 30.00 per day. This has gone towards changing my life and that of people whom i support like my mother.I have been giving back to the society through our church donation to less fortunate in our society like orphans.I also successfully managed to repay your loan with the profit. Thank you very much Lenders and Zidisha Community.

Hi lenders ! I just wanted to take a minute today to let you all know what a fantastic job you are doing for me and other people with financial needs like me. When I first started here was having a lot of financial problems. and sales were poor. Honestly I was a little worried about what I had gotten myself into but my business has since grown through your help. Anyway I just wanted to let you all know that I really appreciate your dedication to helping people grow financially.

I would like to thank my lenders and the Zidisha community for the support and patience they have given me. The loan helped me grow my business and improve my services to my customers providing them with their desired products which were available at all times no shortages. The loan too enabled me through the high profit margin obtained, help my family pay my two sisters fees for their secondary education in full with the help of my parents. This will enable them complete their form four next year without a difficulty in fees.

Hi lenders, im very grateful for the financial support you gave me. I purchased more tins of groundnuts to make me produce more jars of peanut butter. By having more tins of peanut butter means i'll get more profit from the sales. Before i used to produce 70 jars of peanut butter a week and that would give me Kes. 17500 but now i produce 100 jars a week and that would give me Kes 25000. Through this it has enabled me to take my children to the college. comment image
