I saved up to 15,too that I used to start my current business of selling vegetables in open market of njoro and charcoal.MY BUSINESS ASSET IS NOW ABOUT KSH 40,000.my customers have confident in my services because of my accurate measurement and the way i communicate with them humbly.monthly i make a total of about 8,000 income,but net profit is averaged 5,000.GIVEN ZIDISHA LOAN I WILL BUY AND SELL BEANS.THIS SEASON MAIZE HARVEST IS EXCELLENT.I WILL GET IT.

Loan Proposal

I will use my loan to expand and scale up trade at a local Njoro market with commodities of charcoal and green vegetables including tomatoes,cabbages and onions. At this market demand for the said commodities is high due to dense population of residents residing in this industrial area.The business is sustainable since the said commodities are basic needs without which consumers cannot live.

    Dear lenders,
    I'm Analin Saturria McGregor, Communications Associate at Zidisha.
    Our Volunteer Mentor Ruth Muraya has let us know that Hana has faced a setback in her business activity. She was evicted from the space she used to rent and was forced to close her business. Her business remained closed until she found a new space to rent, which of course, has meant her cash flow has suffered in the past few weeks.
    Fortunately, Hana has found a new location to set up shop and is slowly getting back on her feet. As many of you probably know, setting up shop in a new location has its own challenges: accommodating to a new environment that might not be as comfortable or spacious, making sure your clients are aware of your new location, and often new, unexpected competition. Hana and Ruth are working together to ensure her shop is running smoothly in the shortest time possible. Ruth has also committed to help Hana determine the loan amount she can pay consistently, and adjust her schedule accordingly. If you have any suggestions for Hana about how to make the most of a new business location, you are welcome to post them here!
