Start-up fund for Huda: reopening a small grocery stall after a long illness and repossession
A small grocery stall in Tangier needs help replacing a cold-storage unit after a long illness and repossession.
🇲🇦 Tangier, Tanger-Tetouan, Morocco900 views
For six years I have run a small grocery stall in Tangier. In March, a long illness and repossession took a cold-storage unit. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Sunday, and I employed 2 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 6 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 $750 goes:
• Replacing a cold-storage unit: $520
• Initial stock: fresh produce: $115
• Shop repairs and licensing: $50
• Working capital for the first month: $65
With deep gratitude,
Huda

so sorry you're going through this, Huda. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. God bless
thinking of you, Huda. Shared this with my family. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. All the best.
Sending love. Small businesses are the heart of Tangier. Hope you're open again soon. Wish I lived closer to Nairobi so I could bring a meal.
