About Me

I am from a family that is not well of, though we had a small farm where we did cashcrop farming. But when we grew up the farm was subdivided and became small, so i decided to venture into business so that i could meet the needs of my family. I have three children and a lovely wife.
So i collected some money and started a business. i desire to give my kids the best education which i did not manage to access.

My Business

My main business is a small garage that i operate from under a tree, where i repair motocycles and bicycles. I make about five to seven thousand every week. i also operate a small car wash, from where i get more capital to pay one of my workers.
I like this business because around my area, there are not many affordable garages and car wash. So my under tree business has been a success so far.
I chose this business because it is easy to operate and it does not involve alot of costs.
I use most of my earning to feed and educate my kids

Loan Proposal

My carwash machine uses electricty, and currently i get power from my neighbour, who charges me highly. So i have already applied for my own meter and water connection

Power connection charges-170 dollars
Water meter and connection_50 dollars
Pay a debt 50 dollars that is part of installments for my machine
Payment for security where our biz is located_10 dollars

    The loan that i just completed was very instrumental in defining my business, i have connected water, and i no longer buy water in jericans to do my work, i was also able to connect electricity to my business. I can now say i am independent in many ways.
    i am also happy i employed someone to assist me in my car wash, i pay him in commission.
    i am happy now

    Ever since i connected my own meter of water and electricity business has been doing well. the cost of power and water has reduced. I have been able to give better services to my customers. i also did create some parking space at my business, and this increased my customers since it is located near a restaurant.
    Thanks Zidisha
