About Me

My names are Everlyne. am a single mother with one son who is 8 years old. I live in Nairobi, Zimmerman. am a secretary by profession but naturally i love business. at the moment am doing shaggy mats.due to capital have been doing according to orders but i would like to venture into that deeply if possible be able to export them to the nearby countries. There is demand for this mats/carpets because most people especially with young children are going for them unlike the others shaggy mats do not hold much dust which will always cause flue to kids. secondly a customer is able to choose the colours and patterns that they want. atleast if i get 180 dollars i will be able to boost my business. my earnings have enabled me pay my son's school fees. i love swimming, singing and encouraging or counseling people.

My Business

Greetings to all my lenders and to entire zidisha fraternity. Once more thank you so much for this opportunity. for sure am glad to be part of this group, you really are helping us a lot by giving us loans. again i request for my next loan atleast I may be able to use it to expand on my small business of shaggy mats. I also would like to venture in doing window curtains. out of this i will be able to pay my son's fees and thanks in advance. your trust on us really show how much you care. Your great support has really helped me and my son. Out of this loan I will be able to buy curtain materials which ranges from 6 dollars per meter considering the quality of material the customer wants, curtain sheers ranges from 5 dollars per meter, curtain tape ranges from 15 dollars a roll plus labor which is around 7 dollars. Then buy rugs for doing shaggy mat which goes for 7dollars a meter which will take 12 balls of thread and a ball is 2dollars. If I get around 250 dollars this will really boost my business.

Loan Proposal

I will use the loan to buy materials for the shaggy mats. I will get different colours of wool. 1metre shaggy mat uses 12balls of wool, so i will get atleast enough to make not only one mat. plus i will buy rugs for the same. I use 30dollars to complete 1metre shaggy mat so if i get a loan i will be able to buy enough materials. i really need support to enable me run this business for it will not only benefit me but one or two people will be able to get some payments. As in i may be able to employ them. Am thanking you in advance for your great support.
