Sergey is married with two children. His 17-year-old daughter is a handball player. His son is 22, he studies in college to be an IT technician. Sergey’s dream is to open family computer store/club.



Before Sergey started his business, he used to work at a factory adjusting welding equipment. When the factory staff was reduced, Sergey lost his job. He was forced to find another source of income for the family with two little kids. That’s how he ended up at a car repair shop working with a car flattener. In 1994 Sergey decided to start a small business of his own, selling dishware, leather wallets, perfume and souvenirs. The loans he received in “Nadiya Ukraine” helped him reinforce his trade activities, providing necessary resources for his small business. Sergey is very consistent and balanced, he has a good sense of management. That’s why he has succeeded to manage all loans without any delinquencies.



Sergey is applying for a loan to get sufficient capital to increase his inventory and gain extra profits. It will not only help him have enough to maintain his family and cover the increasing demand this Christmas season, but also give their family computer business a good start. In the country where most families still don’t have computers at home and many people go to computer clubs to access internet, Sergey and his son can open a client-friendly internet café that would provide high quality service to the community. They are planning to rent a facility, do all the necessary remodelling and purchase desktop computers and supplementary furniture. This computer club will not only provide access to computers, moreover, it will offer any kind of IT services and a wide range of computer equipment for sale.



Сергій – одружений, у нього двоє дітей. 17-річна донька професійно займається гандболом. 22-річний син вивчає в університеті комп’ютерні технології. Мрія Сергія – відкрити власний комп’ютерний магазин/клуб.



Сергій працював на заводі – налагоджував зварювальне устаткування. Коли Сергій втратив роботу, він був змушений шукати інший заробіток, бо треба було якось дбати про родину з двома маленькими дітьми. Так Сергій почав рихтувати автомобілі. В 1994 році Сергій вирішив почати свій бізнес і продавати посуд, гаманці, парфуми та сувеніри. Позики, які він отримав в „Надії України”, допомогли Сергію зміцнити свої позиції на ринку та забезпечити необхідні ресурси для успішного функціонування його бізнесу. Сергій дуже наполегливий та врівноважений. З поміж інших його відрізняє чудове вміння керувати фінансовими ресурсами та часом. Ці якості допомогли йому вчасно виплатити усі позики, отримані в „Надії України”.



Сергій просить про позику для того, щоб отримати необхідні кошти для збільшення кількості товарних одиниць та отримання додаткового прибутку. Це не тільки дасть йому можливість забезпечити родину усім необхідним та задовольнити попит на товари напередодні свят, але й надасть можливість нарешті почати свій сімейний комп’ютерний бізнес. В країні, де велика кількість родин досі не мають власного комп’ютера вдома і багато хто відвідує комп’ютерні клуби для того, щоб скористатися Інтернетом, Сергій та його син хочуть відкрити затишне інтернет-кафе, яке зможе запропонувати спільноті високоякісні комп’ютерні послуги. Сергій з сином планують орендувати приміщення, зробити ремонт, закупити комп’ютери ті необхідні меблі. Слід додати, що в планах Сергія зробити з цього інтернет-клубу також сервіс-центр та магазин, який надає різноманітні послуги у галузі інформаційних технологій, а також займається продажем комп’ютерів та іншого обладнання.
