I come from a Sei Semayang in Medan (North Sumatra). I graduated from junior high school from SMP Tamsis Medan. I started this business to help the family economy, I want to increase the supply of raw materials for my business. Business is my hobby. My experience from helping my brother selling daily goods in his shop made me start my own business – as it is today I have run my own business for 2 years.

I run a business selling grilled meatballs. I sell my food in schools, mosques and other crowded places, so pretty much I need enough supplies of meatballs to sell. I chose this business because food stalls are very popular with children and adults, thus I can make good profit selling grilled meatballs. Sometimes I must make sure that I am around when school children are having their recess before moving to other crowded places. The average monthly cost was approximately Rp. 3,000,000 with revenue of RP. 3,700,000 (ed: see comment on discussion page). I want to use this loan to help my business.

Cost of making meatball stocks, additional sales materials and repair of meatball cart are around $130. The advantage of having more meatball stocks, my customers can purchase different flavours grilled meatballs and my cart can look more attractive . The estimated amount of profit that could be in store is $300 in a day and in month it can reach to $9,000.
