By this time, I had started to charge them kes 20 per day for facilation.I also hired 4 teachers to help me.
From the above amount of money, I am able to save for the loan repayment.

I would like to pay early so that I reborrow to increase my working capital.

Packing papers

I got my first Zidisha Loan on the 28th of July 2015. I did manage to buy good quality packing papers and I qualified for a wholesale discount. This has greatly reduce the amount of milk that used to go to waste due to leaking papers. This also improved on efficiency. I was initially using two or three papers while packing milk which was taking a bit of time, but as for now I just use one paper which is way much faster.
I have informed the surrounding business people and they have started buying the papers. Last week on the 30th July 2015 and so far I have sold 8 bundles. People are slowly getting to know that I do sell papers and I believe I will sell more than 50 bundles before the end of this week.

It is very difficult to have friends like you these days that care for others without any reason. The help that you did will clear the obstructions that have held up the progress of my business. I will try my best to return your amount at my earliest possible.

Once again thank you so much.

God bless you,

Your friend,

Alfred.
