Next project

Dear Moonknight and Gausdal,
I am very glad to have you as my lenders and I want to wish you well as you go about your daily activities.
So far my business is doing well with an average monthly revenue of ksh 115700. I am confident that with your support this figure will go up because from my end I have the determination that I have to reach my goal of making a giant company that supplies bar soap to the entire country and even East and Central Africa.
I am placing a request for a second loan but I am getting a response that my gross revenue is required, but in my profile I have included all that.
I believe this error can be sorted so that I continue growing my business through your loans.

Best regards

Denis Aloo

I thank all the lenders of zidisha for the usual support they always give to us to grow our businesses and our personalities. I have seen a great improvement in my life and my family through the loans I took from zidisha. The profit is used to pay for my computer science programme fees and part of it is also used to pay for my zidisha loan taken and the remaining is used to reinvest into the business. I thank zidisha for this great achievement.

I purchased Herbalife body and lotion to serve two customers with GHc18 loan i received from zidisha. I made. GHc12 profit instantly in one day. Throughout the week I made GHc24 profit. In my village called Koraso, in the Bronh Ahafo regoin Ghana, every Friday farmers do not go to farm. According to the tradition, the god that increases harvest visit the farms every Friday. It is believed that if anyone goes to farm on Fridays that person will meet the gods and the gods will punish that person. Fridays is the best days I make more sales because I meet my customers and the prospects in the house since they don't go to farm on Friday.

I invested my last loan in my Shoe shop, the total loan was used to purchase Children, Ladies and Men shoes, this was very helpful.

My guests house

Hi Lenders,
Thank you. I received the loan Kshs. 119,435. I went out over the weekend and bought a rice cooker (kshs. 6,000), a pressure cooker (kshs. 4,000) The pressure cooker cooks githeri (a mixture of rice and beans) within 30 minutes as opposed to 1 hour when using an ordinary sufuria/pot. I bought a blow drier so that i can be making my daughter's hair from the house instead of going to the saloon to have it done. The blowdrier cost Kshs. 4,000. I bought toners (kshs. 10,000) in bulk and am sure this will last me a long time depending on the work that i will get. I have saved kshs. 35,000 for school fees for next term. Schools will close on August 1st so we plan to take them for a holiday, we are yet to choose the destination. I shall repair the colour printer and send some money for the cow's feed back in kinangop.
Oh, thank you again and again for the loan, for your kind and generous hearts.

I changed my business from handling plastic bags to Farming

Greetings Lenders.
I want to give an update about my brick business progress, the process of burning bricks some time ago is not so smooth because the rain fell quite swift when the burning took place so that the fire temperature is not optimal and make some black bricks so it can not be sold to consumers, although later this immature brick can be burned back in the next burning process but this will increase the workload again.

Even so, we keep the spirit because there are no obstacles that can not be overcome as long as we keep trying to the maximum.
Thank you for all your support!

During my previous loan, i had planned to purchase some more paper bags but unfortunately as you are aware, the plastic bags were banned in Kenya. This will obvious hinder the business. I thereby opted to change tactic and get to farming where I have been doing some farm produces which include cabbages and tomatoes. The new venture so far is promising but I got some challenges on board which I need your assistance. I want to purchase some quality cabbage seeds by the name 'Gloria F1'

Hi my lenders am glad for your loan it helped me to purchase a laminating machine which will boost my business to make more profit.

Just a simple update:

This past couple of weeks I had to skip a payment as I had traveled to a place where I could not access a cell signal. I had an opportunity to also learn how other people are managing their growth, and what issues they face.

I did get some valuable lessons that I hope to implement with time.

I am almost clearing repayment of my current loan, and will sure post another one!

This year I will be finishing my program in University, and shift focus on helping my sons increase their knowledge and passion in agribusiness, or manufacturing.

Perhaps a day is coming, and I sure look forward to it, when we shall achieve what is still a viable niche in the market here, that is produce and raise enough chickens to at least see white meat make it to the diet regularly and at an affordable cost.

Thanks,
L.

Dear lenders, I'm very much grateful for the financial assistance given me. Although the money wasn't enough but I was able to use to improve upon my business. I have been able to buy 10 car dusters, 10 brushes and two medium sized containers of washing powder. These has increased my earnings which has mainly been reinvested into the growing of my business. Pressure on my workers has reduced and I can now provide for my mom.
