Dear Chepkwony, Keep your spirits up, many loans are fulfilled in the last few minutes, as lenders can set their accounts to fund loans that are partly filled and about to expire. You have an excellent loan proposal. Sincerely, Carolyn in Canada

Hello lenders, I apologize for the delay in payment on 10 /01/15. This was not intentionally. In fact, I went through the process of payment , but not knowing that the payment process didn't go through. Because of this I have pay double this week to cover the delayed payment. Thank you all. All is well with my business, family and my health. Sales are okay. I attach picture of some items I sell on table top in smaller quantities behind my shop (tin & satchel tomatoes and spices ) to households that can't buy in bulk for their homes. And also a picture with two of my children.comment image

Dear lenders, thanks a bunch for once again given me another opportunity to expand my business. With this loan i have been able to increase about 20 percent of my inventory, 10 percent of prepaid air-time credits to retail and also added other high demanded inventory such as sd cards and pen drives to my business, this will drastically reduce the cost of frequent transport fair to the city for inventory leading to a rise in my profit margin. Am grateful my lenders and the whole Zidisha team, that gradually you are helping me achieve my vision of growing my business into an enterprise by 2020. Massive respect to my lenders and may you keep on with your good works. God bless you all

Dear Valued Lenders, My Message: I was fortunate enough to find Zidisha Family and lovely lenders. Their very professional account advisors not only took the time to really get to know my history but really concentrated on the potential they saw in me. They go outside the box, (so to speak) to assist. They are very one on one online lending team with their clients and keep you up to date throughout every step of the loan process. They have very fair lending rates and really care about your business’s future success. I feel very fortunate to have them as my lenders and I look forward to continue dealing with them in the future. I highly recommend Zidisha Org. to all businesses and individuals looking for some financial assistance.Thank you again! Otherwise, The loan will go towards purchase of the following stock: 2 sacks of Fertilizer @ 3600/= ( $35.15 usd) 1 sack of sugar 25kgs @ 2000/ =( $19.53 usd) 1 sack of Rice 25kgs @ 1800/= ( $17.58 usd) 10 Liters Cooking oil @ 1600/ = ( $15.62 usd) Totals : 9000/= ( $87.88 usd) The above purchase is done on large quantity in which I will then repack them in small quantities to sell at a profit.

Today I travelled to Nairobi my capital city and using cash from the loan i was able to purchase a power drill worth USD 85 and a tool box worth USD 23. I decided to go for a more powerful drill than I had planned for since I want to handle any kind of mounting and installation. Am now happy and confident because i can now be able to carry out more reliable, safer and smart installations. The tool box will enable me to move with my tools comfortably. Thank you Zidisha team for your support.

Hi, team its my pleasure to inform you about the progress. First and foremost special thanks to all the Zidisha family for standing with each other. You have been of great help to nurturing business ideas through financial and moral support. The platform serve to motivate many who have an idea of getting where they dream. I understand of late i make late payments simply because after graduation i went through another hard period of low income. Am happy this mid January the business is picking well am sure soon everything will be alright. I wish my lenders to understand and stay positive with me. I trust everything will go as planned. Thanks alot. Shalom zidisha family
