Thanks alot and God bless you.

The just ended loan was a great success in my business project. I bought a bale of blankets, ladies jacks and the summer time time clothing. I earned good profits in this project especially in 2023 during the festival season, I generated good incomes and the business is growing and expanding steadily since joining Zidisha online loans, the platform has been very supportive and this year I wish to work very hard so that my can expand and I can buy or build a shop were I can stock up different types clothing goods. Thank you my lenders I hope and pray that you will give me more support in the next project of 2024.

Thank you so much for supporting this venture. As they say education is the key to a brighter future and by providing exercise books at an affordable price I am able to put a smile on a young child's face. These kids are tomorrow's leader and future zidisha members too. January marks the start of a school term and exercise books are an essential part of going back to school. I can't thank you enough for making this possible. Asante

Just purchased the computers thanks alot backers

Thank you very much for your faith and support. We have adequate rain now and the funds will help me buy fertilizer for my maize crop. Thank you.

Thank you all my backers, for coming through with your support and most importantly, Zidisha for providing this platform which has lightened the burden of access to finance for thousands of entrepreneurs across various countries.

I did receive the funds and I was to purchase new stock for sale this 2024, I bought new latest smart phones for sale and the phones accessories.
Thank you my backers for helping me to expedite my loan because I almost lost the new orders but you made a very efforts to help me expedite my quickly and I received the money instantly. I hope in future, you will support me.

Ready to go for marketing thank you for helping us.

I intend buy quarry dust for making building blocks.this will help me in building a permanent house.
Thank you for your assistance

Thank you very much for the trust that has been given to me, I will use the funding assistance that has been provided for purchases including additional capital assets such as raw materials in the form of stock of bread, jam and cheese. Then additional stock for packaging includes paper boxes, plastic wrap. With the additional capital provided, it really helps to develop the business because at the moment I am constrained by capital to increase stock of goods, so far I have been shopping for limited stock of goods and in the end a lot of time is wasted because the turnover of goods is disrupted by a shortage of stock (when there are events it often happens). the goods run out first) I am very grateful to the funders and I promise to maintain the commitment and trust that has been given, hopefully this can provide positive things. May the donors be given health and abundant sustenance by GOD/ALLAH SWT. Once again, thank you very much and hopefully we can help each other and work together in the future. Thank you

Terima kasih banyak atas kepercayaan yang telah di berikan kepada saya,bantuan pendanaan yang telah di berikan akan saya gunakan untuk pembelian di antaranya penambahan aset modal seperti bahan baku berupa stok roti,selai,keju.
Kemudian penambahan stok untuk packaging di antaranya box kertas,bungkus plastik.
Dengan penambahan modal yang diberikan sangat membantu untuk mengembangan usaha karena pada saat ini saya terkendala dari modal untuk penambahan stok barang,selama ini saya melakukan pembelanjaan stok barang terbatas dan akhirnya banyak waktu terbuang karena perputaran barang terganggu oleh kekurangan stok barang(saat ada acara sering kali barang habis duluan)
Saya sangat berterima kasih kepada para pendana dan saya berjanji akan menjaga komitmen dan kepercayaan yang telah di berikan,semoga hal ini dapat memberikan hal positive.
Semoga para pemberi dana di berikan kesehatan dan rizki yang melimpah oleh TUHAN/ALLAH SWT.
Sekali lagi terima kasih banyak dan semoga kita dapat saling membantu dan bekerja sama untuk ke depanya.

I was able to buy some refurbished mabatis 7@1000 each, nails and barbed wire to repair the coup. The repair took abit long because of the heavy rains which could start very early. The festivities also ate into out time. The place is now ready. I am moving the chics this week after their 2nd vaccine. The el nino rains have also subsided and my chics can now play outside in good sunshine. I am so thankful to my lendets for making this possible. Thanks so much and God bless you.

We have had very good and exciting progress in the last 3 months. Despite the heavy rains that have made working in the open fields more difficult we have achieved the following;
1. We harvested 1.5 tones of onions that we sold out directly to retail customers over the months of September and October. We made close to 90 retail customers that loved our " farm to kitchen" model.

2. We are expecting to harvest close to 6000 cabbages in the next 2 weeks and we are just as excited to sell them all out.

3.We still have onions in the farm that we shall be harvesting within the next two weeks and a ready retail market for them.

4. We have a relatively good harvest of potatoes.

December and new celebrations always attract the highest number of sales and I am looking forward to boosting my stock. Thank you for your support and for making a great difference in my life.
