I would like to thank all my lenders for your support, the funds did help me purchase and supply the solar lanterns that my clients had ordered for from the rural areas. I had managed to travel to the rural area and install the lanterns. My clients were happy and pleased with the service. This was all possible to you my lenders.

Business slowly resuming,

Jonathan    Aug 14, 2020

Payments from my clients have been a bit slow, though they have assured me of paying up.

Dear Lenders,

I spoke with Jonathan and he explained that his business has been affected by the Covid-19 crisis. He has further explained that he plans to make a payment soon. Thank you.

I have had a slight delay of payments from my clients

Jonathan    Jun 11, 2020

Business has been slower than usual. I will manage k100 a week for now, but if i get a huge order, i will re-adjust to make a bigger repayment on my load

Business has almost come to a stand still due to this Coronavirus pandemic.

Delayed payments from my clients

Jonathan    Feb 20, 2020

Greetings my lenders,

Kind regards
Jonathan

Thank you my lenders for your support.Am excited that I will now be able to register with a local solar home unit distributor and be able to purchase solar home units at agent fees, hence increasing my stock and also be able to purchase a solar home unit repair kit.

I really appreciate your support, i will keep you updated with my progress.

Kind regards
Jonathan

The previous loan helped me clearly identify what products to sell to my clients and also enabled me develop necessary skill in maintaining the solar devices. Now am looking to include power inverters to products I will be selling to my clients. There has been an increase in load shedding across the country the demand for alternative energy is still on a high.

Thank you my lenders for helping me attain my goal which am still working towards.

I would like to clear my balance soon.

I hope you are ok and will resume payments soon. I encourage you to quickly restart payments, or contact Zidisha right away and change (lower or delay) payments. That way, you can maintain a higher ranking, which you deserve. You have many good ideas, but if your credit ranking falls too much, it will be hard to pursue your worthy ideas.

TomF925    Jan 30, 2019

I hope you and Jayomitech.com are well and will soon resume repayments.

• Jonathan    Feb 10, 2019

  Hi Tom,
  
  Business was a bit slow, but is picking up now and will resume my repayments and clear the loan quicker soon.
  
  Thank you for checking up on me.
  
  Tom, i was wondering, is there a way of making biodegradable shopping paper bags safely and in bulk? I have been doing some research on the some, but can't seem to come across reliable source of information on procedure.

    Some people will make shopping bags from used grain sacks and other natural materials. But it's hard to make them in bulk as the sewing takes a long time.

      I see, thank you for that insight Liz. My friends and I are looking for ways to encourage the use of biodegradable paper bags and later also find affordable ways of making Biodigesters to produce biogas for cooking purposes.

    Glad to see you are catching up with payments. With regard to shopping bags, the best (imho) is cloth or net bag that the customer brings themselves and uses over and over. Even heavy plastic is good if it is used many many times and finally properly recycled. I believe paper can go to biodegradable, or green waste to be turned into compost for garden fertilizer. I suppose there are machines for cutting, folding and gluing paper together to make bags. The ones in the US are probably expensive, complicated and make tons of bags quickly.
    btw, what do think of the various types of solar cookers: evacuated tube, box, panel, parabolic? Best wishes.

      Thank you for the information. Solar cookers would be a good project as fuel for from the sun is in abundance. I will do more research on solar cookers. Many thanks

        I am sorry - I have just noticed that you asked me a long time ago to send your details to my friend Clement Musonda who makes solar cookers in Lusaka. I did not get your message. His email address is: [email protected] If you contact him, you can mention my name (Zoe). I am sending him your email address now.
        
        Here is a link to an introduction to solar cooking: solarcooking.wikia.com/wiki...
        
        There are still very few people who know how to cook with the sun, but it is an amazing technique. You can even cook using aluminium foil, cardboard and a plastic bag, if you know how! The sun is so powerful - you only need to learn how to concentrate the heat. Cardboard panel cookers are the cheapest, and there are quite a lot of people using them in Kenya. I hope one day lots of people may use them in Zambia too.

          Hello Tom, thank you for the information. Clement contacted me and we talking, am hoping to meet up with him and discuss further on how his experience with solar cookers has been on the Zambian market.
          
          Many thanks
