My names are Linet Bosibori,being born in Kisii District,in the year 1978,i am the last born in our family of four siblings being the only girl and the others being boys.I have gone through Primary School & Secondary School Education and completed ,Due to loss of my Parent i never proceeded to college due to the financial constrain in our family,it is when I deciced to venture into small business of selling bananas and through my daily routine i met with this young man whom i later got married to.
While i was doing my business i engaged with other women and joined the merry-go-round where i got my capital of starting my business of selling fresh fruit juices ,sodas ,mineral water artificial juices and snacks .
The land here in Kisii is of Red soil and so fertile for agriculture ,making Kisii to have atleast food security for it residence.I love traveling ,reading novels and making new friends.
I am an entrepreneur operating a shop of fresh fruit juices,sodas,mineral water ,artificial juices and snacks here in Kisii.After securing a loan from this Chama merry -go-round and started this business,I joined the world of business cycle and I am so happy about it.
In this business it entails a lot of cleanliness and transparency as most of my customers have confidence with me and they don’t need to move from their places of work to get what they want from my business and this has made me to employ three girls to be making those deliveries to the clients.This service has made my business to be doing very well .
The reason why i choose this business is because i had a passion in owning a juice par lour in this area and also the fruits in this area are in plenty and by me starting this business the bigger picture was to add value to this fruits because most of them were just going into waste because of lack of market and good preservation.
The total cost of my business is around USD 800 ,making atleast sales of USD 55 per day, the profit that i make from the business i pay for the rent of the business and my upkeep ,i do also cheap in for the school fees of my son ,re-invest back to the business and also have some to save for future upgrade and expansion.
Thank you all.
Hey every lender,and Zidisha Team,first is to thank each and everyone for the support you have accorded me and my business ,this being the second loan i will channel this loan to buying of the Empty packaging bottles at a cost of USD 180 and increase the stock of buying fresh fruits at a cost of USD 35,this will be of great advantage to my business as production of juice will increase and pile up of orders will decrease ,making delivery to be efficiency,the sales will increase automatically and the profit will also increase making the business to run well and the loan i will pay without constrain .Thank You in advance for your kind support.
