About Me

I am christine Omoding ,I am the second born in our family. I married and blessed with three children. I went to segero primary school and later joined Lwanya girls fro my A levels. After A levels I went to Kisumu polytechnic where I studied dressing makin.
After completing my studies ,I was not luck to find a job.I had no capital to start my own busness and so I had to work for people as assistant for two years.I hard no option.After struggling for two years I was able to save $200.I used the money to buy a commercial sewing machine. Since I had no source of income to rent a house for business,I decided to start working from home. I got clients and soon I was able to raise $100 that I used to rent my first shop.
My first born child wants to be nurse when she grows up.she is 5 years old and admires the nurse that treat her so much. my second born are twins and they are 1 year old.
I love singing ,doing social work ,eg cleaning the town and peer education. I also love giving helping had in anyway I can to less fortunate in the society.

My Business

I always design and make African wear for both men and women. Once I client has chosen what she or he wants ,I always make it exactly as they want to be. I value clients satisfaction for they are my bosses. I always believe a single client can bring 100 more clients but can also go with 100 clients.I work hard not to loose a client.
Clothing industry has a lot of opportunities for expansion and growth and that is why decide to choose these business.
I spend $500 on rent,fabric,machines maintenance,and labor.My monthly revenues are $800 per month.
I use my profits to take care of my children as well as my family. I am also helping my husband pay his college fees . I also donate $20 per month to our local NGO that supports widows and orphans.

Loan Proposal

I am glad for an opportunity to join Zidisha family. I am asking for $100 loan to support me buy a good Iron box that consumes less power for ironing clients cloths.I currently take the cloths to the for ironing to dobbie and it is too expensive. My own Iron will actually cut my operations cost and help improve my revenues by at least 30%. I am humbly asking you to support me.Thank you in advance.
