Back to business - Zalak's comeback in Coimbatore

Zalak has run a fish stall for nine years; a break-in destroyed the equipment, and $550 will put it back on its feet.

For nine years I have run a fish stall in Coimbatore. In August, a break-in took a freezer and scales. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me. Before that, my customers came every Tuesday, and I employed 3 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 7 weeks. This business pays my children's school fees and rent. I have already started working from home in small ways, but I can't meet orders without proper equipment. Every contribution brings me closer to reopening, and I promise to post photos as I buy each item. I'll buy equipment from local suppliers and post photos and receipts as I go. Where the $550 goes: • Replacing a freezer and scales: $380 • Initial stock: the first catch: $80 • Working capital for the first month: $90 Thanks for being kind about this.
