I am a mother of two children. I have been involved in trading since I was a child. I own a business selling basic necessities like cooking oil and other items to support myself and my children.
I have a business that sells basic necessities such as cooking oil and other daily necessities as a source of income for me and my children. I have been used to trading since I was a child.
I will allocate all of this loan as working capital to increase the stock of merchandise in my grocery store. Specifically, I will: Purchase staple commodities in bulk (such as rice, cooking oil, sugar, and eggs) to obtain lower purchase prices. Increase the variety of other household products that are frequently requested by customers but are currently unavailable. Ensure consistent stock availability, so customers are not disappointed by out-of-stock items. Benefits for myself: For me, this fund is a means to increase business scale and financial independence. With better profit margins from wholesale purchases, I can reinvest the capital to expand the shop sustainably and hone my skills in managing a more professional business. Benefits for my family: The success of this business will have a direct impact on my family's well-being. The increased income from the shop will be used to: Help pay for my children's education. Meet my family's health needs. Provide a sense of financial security for our family's future. Benefits for my community: My grocery store is not just a place of business, but also part of my village/neighborhood ecosystem. The benefits for the community are: Accessibility: Neighbors do not need to spend transportation costs all the way to the big market in the city because goods are already available at my store at competitive prices. Food Security: Ensuring the supply of basic necessities is always available in the nearest neighborhood. Inspiration: Being an example to local residents that with hard work and the right support (such as from Zidisha), small businesses can grow and thrive.
