About Me

My names are Petronela Mwami. i was born in 1979 from Choma southern Zambia. i started my grade 1 in 1987 from Adastra private school were i learned until my grade 9 in the year 1995. In 1996 i went to lean at Choma secondary school as i finished from the same school.
After i finished my high school, i stayed at home for 2 years as my parents tried to look for money so they would send me into tertiary education as i also had 3 young brothers and 1 big brother who were also looking up to my parents huge responsibility of being sponsored into school.
I battle was a bit hush and i would get hurt seeing how my parents thrived to get us that money our studies needed until one day in the year 1999, when i decided to start raising money for me to start up a clothing shop....
In that same year 1999, an aunt of mine from Lusaka Zambia visited us at home here in Choma and she told me to make up a business plane i would run as she promised to give me capital for a try.
I then started to go to Namibia where a friend of mine had told me it had cheap quality clothes.
The first trip i made was a bit slow but all my products were sold out as i acquired a higher amount of money through the same business and so i used the profit i made for the first time to help me parents pay for my siblings school fees.
Hardships became less when i kept on with my good earning profit business i was running.

I remember how much grateful i was when my aunt gave me an amount to start a business with as my parents would not afford to raise any amount of money apart from for school fees and shelter... sometimes we would end up with no for even up to 3 days or even more.
it was hush before i was helped but after my business boomed.... most people would even give me orders even before i traveled.

The town i live in has a few boutiques so i took advantage of the unique place as in to travel a lot and supply people with affordable and good quality clothes as i also look forward to growing the business into a home equipment store because also the competition is low on that here in the city of Choma.

I have 4 children who learn at a very good school as they word hard to archive good results and become civil servants. one says she wants to be a nurse, the other one a teacher and the other two say they both want to be police officers so i work very hard to make money and afford there school fees while i also give them a conducive shelter to live in.

Am a very friendly person so meeting new people makes me feel good and i also like reading novels for my pass time. sometimes i even spend time with my children and help them study.

My Business

I have a very beautiful clothing shop with very affordable prices and good quality clothes. My goods are on demand because i sale quality clothes at very affordable prices compared to other boutiques around. I chose this kind of business because it save me less pressure and makes me earn enough funds to sustain my needs. When i invest $20, i manage to get back $45 after my total sales within a short period of time. I use the profits a make for home improvements and also pay for my 4 children's school fees

Loan Proposal

I will buy means jeans and t-shirt for saying worth $10.00 as that will benefit most of the people around by having strong and original clothes at an affordable price.
I expect my profits to increase 100%
