About The Project

This project is about improving my business by purchasing a refrigerator that will assist me to store vegetables and fruits. Not only that but also getting packages and increasing the quality of goods in the shop will increase my capital and give a reasonable profit. Hence, I will improve my family's living conditions, especially by affording access to food, clothes, health insurance, and paying house rent, school fees, water, and electricity bills. 

My future plans are to process fruits and add nutritional value to them which will make my business better and more attractive to customers. My project will have positive results because I sell a variety of fruit that are a great source of vitamins to the bodies of customers and thus protect themselves from various diseases which are prevented by vitamins. People with good health will be able to work hard and get on with themselves in life. I really want it to be like this I think.



Paying it Forward

If I succeed in my project I will also provide support to others who are facing the same challenge so that they can earn income. This project will also create a value chain for the goods from producers, retailers, and consumers.

Backstory

I’m Tom Jackson and I am twenty-three years old. I’m married to one wife and have one child. We live in a rented house. My mother died in a car accident in 2010 when I was in class 6. After that event, I lacked support since it was my mother who provided me with each and everything because my father is addicted to alcohol and unable to do it himself. When I was 19 years I started to sell vegetables with capital Tzs  20,000/=. I  thank  God that up to now I have succeeded to rent a house for my family and pay water and electricity bills although I still plan to make sure my family members have health insurance and permanent settlement. I also bought a piece of land for my family's house. 

I was involved in this CII project by Dickson who is also my teacher. Since I started this job, I have managed to earn a daily income that helps me make a living with my family. The challenge I face is lacking a fridge for storing vegetables and fruits. This challenge has been leading to my goods (tomatoes, cabbages, spinach, eggplant, etc) rotting which leads to continued loss in my business. To prevent these losses I must get a fridge.
