About Me

With a Masters in Economics and Management, I am 28 years old. My home city, Ouahigouya, is located in the northern region of Burkina Faso 180 kilometers from the capital city, Ouagadougou. I come from a Muslim family of seven children, of which I am the fifth. From a young age, a learned to respect others and accept what is. I am a young woman who adapts to every situation. This allows me to do well in my studies and received/passed exam as well as the benefits of joining a financial network. In this community, I've learned to increase projects for developers. At this time, the idea to put together the mini-project of selling both men's and women's perfumes.

My Business

This project, to sell perfume, consists of taking some assortment with the storekeepers that I offer to my business associates and those who work in partner companies of mine: Notably, banks, microfinance institutions, the Chamber of Commerce and many others. This activity, ran since 2012, allows me to draw a profit-making margin that I save to finance my enrollment for a master's year of accounting and auditing. This current fund that I ask for from you would allow me to reenforce my selling capacity and include other products. This idea to reenforce business comes from a strong demand by the market, for the climate in Burkina Faso is not favorable.

Loan Proposal

Hello my dear lenders,

Today it is with a heart filled with joy that I write you. First, I wanted to say thank you to all those people who trusted me and also to my business. I am touched by your expressions of solidarity towards my community and all other communities. Thank you so much for your help. With Zidisha loans, many things have changed in my life. First, the profit generated by my work (that has flourished through your support) allowed me to enroll in a better school where I obtained a Masters 2 in Accounting and Audit. Also, I was able to help pay for the education of my brothers last year and again this year. This change, which I owe to Zidisha, enables me today to be financially independent and to be able to fulfill my goals . I included in my project the purchase and sale of shea nuts and cashews. Currently I have received an order for 20 bags of 100kg. I already have eight in possession, and I plan to return to the villages this weekend to get more. The loan that I request from you would allow me to stock shea nuts in quantity. The purchase price of a bag is 14500 CFA, and I resell it at 20 000 CFA. After deducting for transportation costs of 1000 CFA per bag, and also the cost of storage and catering, my profit is around 2000 CFA per bag. For my perfume selling project, I plan to invest 200 000 CFA in this project. The remaining amount will be allocated to the purchase of shea nuts. Thank you all kindly for giving me your support. To all those who supported me in the past, to continue to support me, for, with you a better tomorrow will come my way. In addition, I want to reassure my lenders that I will continue to pay my bills on time as usual. Thank you all, and long live Zidisha.

About Me

Titulaire d’une maitrise en Sciences Economiques et gestion, je suis née le 06 mars 1987 à Ouahigouya. Ma ville natale est située dans la region de nord du Burkina Faso à 180 Km de la ville de Ouagadougou la capitale. Je suis issue d’une famille musulmane de sept enfants dont je suis la cinquième. Dès le bas âge, j’ai appris à respecter autrui et l’accepter tel qu’il est. Je suis une fille qui s’adapte à toute sorte de situation et cela m’a permis de ma battre dans mes études et j’ai reçu comme récompense mon insertion dans une société d’intermédiation financière. Dans cette société j’ai appris à monter des projets pour des promoteurs et c’est dès ce t’instant que l’idée m’ai venu de monter ce mini projet de vente des parfums masculins et féminins.

My Business

Ce projet vente de parfums consiste à prendre certaines gammes avec les commerçants que je propose à mes collègues de service et ceux qui travaillent dans les autres sociétés partenaires à la mienne notamment : les banques, les institutions de micro finance, la chambre de commerce et bien d’autres. Cette activité menée depuis 2012 me permet de dégager une marge bénéficiaire que j’épargne dans l’optique de financer mon inscription en année de master II en comptabilité et contrôle audite. Ce présent fond que je sollicite auprès de vous, me permettra de renforcer ma capacité de vente et d’associer d’autres produits. Cette idée de renforcer l’activité provient de a forte demande sur le marché car le climat au Burkina n’est pas favorable

Loan Proposal

Bonjour mes très chers prêteurs

Aujourd’hui c’est avec un cœur rempli de joie que je vous écris. Tout d’abord, je tenais à dire merci à toutes ces personnes qui ont eu confiance en ma personne et aussi à mon activité. Je suis touché par vos marques de solidarité envers ma communauté ainsi que toutes les autres communautés. Merci beaucoup pour votre aide. Grâce aux prêts zidisha, beaucoup de chose ont changé dans ma vie. D’abord le bénéfice généré par mon activité ( qui a su prospérée grâce à vos accompagnements) m’ont permis de m’inscrire dans une école supérieur de la place ou j’ai obtenu un Master 2 en Comptabilité Contrôle et Audit. Aussi, j’ai pu contribuer à payer la scolarité de mes frères l’année passée et encore cette année. Ce changement, je le dois à zidisha, qui m’a permis aujourd’hui d’être financièrement indépendante et de pouvoir me réaliser.
J’ai associé à mon projet l’achat vente des noix de karité et de l’anacarde. Actuellement, j’ai reçu une commande de 20 sac de 100kg.j’ai déjà 8 en possession et envisage de rentrer dans les villages ce weekend pour m’en procurer.
Le prêt dont je sollicite auprès de vous de permettra de m’approvisionner en quantité les noix de karité .le prix d’achat d’un sac est à 14 500F et je le revends à 20 000F.Après déductions des frais de transport de 1000f/ sac et aussi les frais d’hébergement + restauration, mon bénéfice tourne autour de 2000f/ sac.
Pour mon projet de vente de parfums, je compte investir 200 000f dans ce projet. Et le reste du montant sera affecté à l’achat des noix de karité.
Merci à vous tous de bien vouloir m’apporter votre soutien. A tous ceux qui m’ont soutenu dans le passé de continuer à me soutenir car grâce à vous un lendemain meilleur s’annonce à moi.
Aussi, je tiens à rassurer mes prêteurs que je continuerais à payer mes traites à temps comme d’habitude.
Merci à tous et longue vie à zidisha
