Dadirai, Dadirai, Janet, Ivy from Zimbabwe

$1100 to buy tracksuits, T-shirts and suits for resale.

Dadirai lives in Marondera. She has a cross-border business selling tracksuits, T-shirts and suits.

Dadirai started her business in 2014. She goes to South Africa and Zambia to restock or gets her stock from her child who lives in South Africa, which cuts on transport costs.

Dadirai sells her clothes to order, and most people come to buy at her house. Dadirai is a widow. She has been sustaining her family from her business and a few rental incomes she collects.

Dadirai always smiles to her customers, a quality that helps her to make more sales. She is a 46-year-old mother of four, and she has two children going to school at the moment.

Dadirai formed a group with members from their location, and they named their group Humbwe. The group is made up of middle-aged women who are working hard to improve their business activities.

Apart from her cross-border trade, she also sells snacks and biscuits to supplement her cross-border trade.

The group attended trainings on leadership and management. The group was happy to learn about proper business management.

Dadirai will use her portion of the loan to buy tracksuits, T-shirts and suits for resale.
