My name is Beatrice Wanjiru. I am a native of an Nairobi’s outskirt esidential town called Embakasi. I am a mother of four, three of them being in different schools. I left schooling at O level. The Embakasi region is populous and the number of women supersedes that of men. The youth dominate the area. This I saw in my own view, which emerged to be realistic, as a doorway to a thriving sale of beauty products and clothing materials. It worked. I started a boutique that has been doing well so far. My goodies range from kids’ to adults’ clothes, and salon products wholesale and retail alike.
The profit I get is not worth complaining as the business became embraced by the entire Community of Embakasi. Adhering to The law of demand and supply has been the basic challenge in carrying out this wonderful business of mine. I need to expand it, by installing more stock into it and consequently moving to a more spacious business premise(s) to allow development. And with the look of things , I might have a motorbike as one of the requirements sooner than later. This is a vivid picture of how crucial a Zidisha loan will be , if granted.
i wish to buy a second hand pickup to transport my goods to customers.i have been spending a lot of money to hire one every time i want to transport my goods to customers,the pickup will cost 2500dollars then i employ a driver and co driver who will be paid on a monthly basis of 100dollars and 70 dollars respectively, this will give me an opportunity to improve other peoples living standard too,after fueling the pickup and paying the driver i will be able to have a profit of about70dollars a month,the pickup when not in used i will put it for higher, that will fetch some money,i really thank you all my lenders for continued support may God bless you as you continue trusting me with your finances
