About Me

My name is Edith; I am married and have two children. I live in Tenkodogo and I make soy skewers, which are mostly eaten by diabetics. Justine is my elder sister and she suggested I take a loan from Zidisha to develop my business. In the photo, I am in the middle of processing soybeans. This brings me a little profit and I take care of some of my family's expenses alongside my husband. With financing from Zidisha, I will take classes to turn soy into milk and soy yogourt so I can vary my products. This will be something completely new to Tenkodogo. Thank you in advance Zidisha!

My Business

With the Zidisha loan, I will pay the fees for soy milk- and soy yogurt-making classes. If possible, I will also buy better kitchen tools such as a gas-powered stove, which is more ecological and economical than the firewood that I am currently using. I plan on doing this to expand my business and increase my profits. I currently make 1,000 to 1,500 CFA francs worth of profit for every sale. It's alright and all, but it is not enough to cover family expenses and the high cost of living. I welcome Zidisha's help and I thank my sister Justine who signed me up. I would also like to thank the entire Zidisha team!

Loan Proposal

With this loan I intend to acquire a broader field outside the city to build eventually to move on this website. Currently my pig is in the court of my father located in the city center. View the growing number of my pigs I must be predictable so that my activity does not cause trouble to neighbors (odors). Prevention is better than cure, I must prepare myself slowly and surely from rather than see me one day under pressure from the town hall. To this end I have launched the first field application and market it after I go with my married and my brother see the owner, which we have shown in the field, about half (1/2) ha, there is possibileté enlarge later since it is a small portion that we Bought. We discussed the price and we fell agree to 500000f cfa or about US $ 1,000. My credit being 285458f my husband my promised me complete the missing (a gift) so that I can buy the land. I run a heart cry lenders to help me financing my credit as soon as possible. I count on you for the success of my activities. I would be grateful. Thank you in advance.

About Me

Je m'appelle Édith, je suis mariée et j'ai deux enfants. Je réside à Tenkodogo et je transforme le soja en brochettes de soja surtout consommés par les personnes diabétiques. Justine est ma sœur aînée et c'est elle qui m'a suggéré le prêt Zidisha pour développer mon activité. Sur la photo, je suis en pleine séance de transformation du soja. Cela me procure de petits bénéfices et je participe à la prise en charge des dépenses de la famille aux côtés de mon mari. Avec le financement Zidisha, je vais procéder à l'apprentissage de la transformation de soja en lait et en yaourt de soya afin de varier mes produits. ce qui sera une innovation à Tenkodogo. Merci d'avance à Zidisha!

My Business

Avec le prêt Zidisha, je vais payer des frais d'apprentissage de la transformation du soja en lait et en yaourt de soja, et si possible me procurer des ustensiles de cuisine plus adaptés comme le fourneau à gaz plus écologique et plus économique que le bois de chauffe que j'utilise en ce moment. Je compte ainsi développer mon activité et augmenter mon profit. Sinon, en ce moment, après chaque vente, je gagne entre 1000F et 1500F de bénéfice. C'est déjà bien mais, c'est encore peu pour les charges de la famille et le coût élevé de la vie. Zidisha est alors la bienvenue pour moi et je remercie ma sœur Justine qui m'a inscrite. Je remercie également toute l'équipe de Zidisha!

Loan Proposal

Avec ce prêt je compte acquérir un terrain plus vaste hors de la ville pour construire par la suite afin de déménager sur ce site. Actuellement ma porcherie se trouve dans la cour de mon père située en pleine centre ville. Vue le nombre croissant de mes porcs il faut que je sois prévisible afin que mon activité ne cause pas d’ennuis aux voisins (les odeurs). Prévenir vaut mieux que guérir, il faut que je me prépare lentement et surement à partir plutôt que de me voir un jour sous la pression de la mairie. A cet effet j’ai premièrement lance la demande de terrain et ça marché après je suis allez avec mon marie et mon frère voir le propriétaire, qui nous ai montre le terrain, environ un demi (1/2) hectare,il ya la possibileté agrandir par la suite puisque c'est une petite portion que nous avons achété. Nous avons discuté sur le prix et on est tombé d’accord à 500000f cfa soit environ 1000$ US. Mon crédit étant à 285458f mon époux ma promis de me compléter le manquant (un don) pour que je puisse acheter le terrain. Je lance un cri de cœur aux prêteurs de m’aide en finançant mon crédit dans les meilleurs délais. Je compte beaucoup sur vous pour la réussite de mes activités. Je vous serais reconnaissante. Merci d’avance.
