Rani needs display cabinets and a cooler to reopen a flower stall
A flower stall in Mumbai needs help replacing display cabinets and a cooler after a long illness and repossession.
🇮🇳 Mumbai, Maharashtra, India1,372 views
For four years I have run a flower stall in Mumbai. In September, a long illness and repossession took display cabinets and a cooler. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Wednesday, and I employed 2 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 10 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:
• Initial stock: seasonal flowers: $50
• Shop repairs and licensing: $60
• Replacing display cabinets and a cooler: $440
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
