Hear from our clients about how Wisrod has transformed their lives and businesses.
Mother, Wife, and Businesswoman
Thandiwe Bafana is a mother of two who has been in retail for seven years. Her shop was doing well, but restocking was a challenge. Thanks to Wisrod Investments, she expanded to wholesaling and now runs a fully stocked shop.
"As the business grew, we started facing financial constraints. My husband's salary wasn't enough for our household expenses. Wisrod's loans were affordable and suited me. I took a loan, restocked my shop, and my profits increased. My husband quit his job to help me, and we sent our children to school without problems. Our house now feels like home thanks to Wisrod's hire purchase facility. I am grateful for their support in empowering women in outlying areas."
Indigenous Grains Vendor
Abigail Gwasunda, a 60-year-old widow and granny, describes herself as "the happiest woman on earth." Her association with Wisrod Investments began five years ago when she was selling kids' snacks. The business wasn't profitable enough, but Wisrod's loans helped her scale up.
"I used the loan to finance my snacks business. I maintained my repayment schedule and kept getting loans from Wisrod, which helped me scale up. Our income and quality of life improved, and I started selling grains and dried vegetables. I managed to send my children to school and buy building materials for my house through Wisrod's micro-housing loan. I am thrilled that soon I will no longer have to stress about rentals."
Hardware Shop Owner
Felix Sayi, a 64-year-old family man with six children, has run his hardware shop in Lower Gweru for nine years. The hardware business requires sufficient capital to stay well-stocked and meet market demands.
"I took a loan in 2018 due to financial instability. The working capital wasn't sufficient to generate income considering my expenses. Wisrod staff visited my shop when I needed financial assistance. They explained the terms, and the process was easy and fast. The following day, I got my loan. It has been two years now, and business has never been easier. I can now generate income to take care of my family and plan for the future. I am grateful to Wisrod Investments for taking me this far."
Mobile Phones and Accessories
Marshal Zvidza, a proud father of two, has been selling mobile phones for six years. Unfortunately, he suffered a setback when he lost all his stock to theft.
"After the loss due to theft, I didn't lose hope but started to restock with my savings. The money wasn't enough to finance the business and fend for my family. I decided to engage Wisrod Investments as my financial partner, and they accepted me. I took my first loan, and the business grew over time, gradually increasing our household income. I cannot imagine what our lives would have been without Wisrod's support. I am grateful for the opportunity to change my life."
