Start-up fund for Juliet: reopening a small grocery stall after a break-in
A small grocery stall in Benin City needs help replacing a cold-storage unit after a break-in.
🇳🇬 Nigeria864 views
For three years I have run a small grocery stall in Benin City. In August, a break-in took a cold-storage unit. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Wednesday, and I employed 1 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 3 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 $200 goes:
• Initial stock: fresh produce: $85
• Shop repairs and licensing: $40
• Working capital for the first month: $75
Thank you so much.
