Help Chinedu restart a neighborhood bakery in Wudil after floodwater
Chinedu lost a commercial oven to floodwater and needs $550 to reopen a neighborhood bakery and support the family.
🇳🇬 Wudil, Kano, Nigeria584 views
For nine years I have run a neighborhood bakery in Wudil. In April, floodwater took a commercial oven. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Tuesday, and I employed 1 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 5 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.
Once I'm back on my feet I plan to hire back the people I had to let go.
Where the $550 goes:
• Replacing a commercial oven: $320
• Initial stock: flour, butter and sugar: $70
• Shop repairs and licensing: $70
• Working capital for the first month: $90
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
