About Me
I am a young lady principled and always eager to succeed in life.I reside in Naivasha town. My business entails selling of food (green grocer).My town Naivasha is widely known for export of floriculture and horticulture product.I had a dream of being a doctor but only completed high school and found a job in Naivasha.I grew up in a society where men are valued more than men.I overcome the challenge my always ensuring that no stereotype of being a woman like owning a business among men be a hindrance for development.I always love singing worship songs as my childhood days.After saving at my work place i opted to do business with husband.Presently am looking for funds to start my own business and be independent.My son dreams to be a doctor in the future.
My Business
I have decided to apply a Zidisha loan to help me start a business that entails selling of food stuff like cabbages and greens in general.Its a green grocers generally..Food stuffs are in high demand for no one can do without food hence going for food business.This is after discussing with my husband to start a different venture that is of high profit,fast moving and used by all.I realized after enough research that food business is the best.Starting it will be creating a pool of flow of income to help in developing my family business empire.My husband will be standing with me in repaying the loan and also i will be using the income that i will be earning from the business to help pay the loan.I ever look forward for positive results in my in this application.My typical costs are example if i purchase one sack of water melon at $10 i will get a profit of $5.I will use the profit for my family domestic use and reinvest in the business.
Loan Proposal
Once i get the loan i will buying onions.avocado,lemon and greens.It will cost me $10.This will give me profit and enable me to be a stable woman who doesn't depend on his husband to raise the family but help her husband in raising the family.In Africa men are the breadwinners but with the present economical situation it takes a wise housewife to think twice.I expect my profit to grow at $5 weekly.I will be happy for your help.
