Hello Zidisha family, let me introduce myself, my name is Gustin, I live in the Krapyak area of Semarang, Central Java, Indonesia. Starting from my hobby in flower arranging and my love for visual aesthetics, I developed a flower shop business with a commitment to presenting high-quality flower arrangements. Currently, I manage a private flower garden and am often visited by local and international tourists. I will pursue this business and start to develop more modern management after I read and learn from various flower farmer groups on the slopes of Mount Ungaran and the slopes of Mount Merbabu, where I started to learn to introduce my flowers by selling through e-commerce social media applications.

I've been running a flower business for over 30 years. I prioritize various styles of flower arrangement, from classic to rustic to modern Korean styles. I use a combination of local flowers from the slopes of Mount Merbabu and imported flowers to maintain freshness and aesthetics. I also manage a flower garden and cultivate and sell local flowers through modern breeding systems. The economic value of this business is very high, with a profit of approximately IDR 50,000 per flower.

Demand for orchids in the Semarang area has continued to increase in the middle of this year, particularly for decoration, special wedding events, and hotel and coffee shop decorations. Through this project, I will develop an orchid greenhouse to meet market demand, which has seen increased sales this month. To expand this project, I need additional capital to purchase equipment to support the greenhouse development, such as planting racks and water spraying equipment. Through the Zidisha platform, I applied for a loan to expand this greenhouse development plan. My profit analysis based on this week's market demand is a net profit of IDR 250,000 per week.
