My name is Miss Toure Kadiatou. I was born and raised in Bobo Dioulasso. I come from a family of thirteen children—seven girls and six boys. My father passed away a few years ago. After elementary and high school, I quickly learned to turn five francs into ten francs; it's an expression we like to say here to people who work tirelessly to improve their situation. I learned about Zidisha from a friend and I would like a helping hand to boost my business.
My business is wholesaling cabbages, tomatoes, and onions. I have four years of experience in this field. My biggest challenge is finding efficient support especially within my country's microfinance sector. I would like to take this opportunity to thank the lenders and members of Zidisha who help entrepreneurs across the world and particularly those in Africa. I came here thanks to a friend and I strongly hope that this initiative continues. I promise to be up to date in regards to the loans that I receive from here. I travel to Abidjan, Ivory Coast once a month with my merchandise of cabbage, tomatoes, and onions. Please know that wholesale buying and selling prices are not standard and that prices drop when these vegetables are in season. But generally December, January, and February are the best period for tomatoes and cabbage. I pay 3,000 francs for a case of tomatoes and resell it in Abidjan for 10,000 francs, for a profit of 7,000 francs. I buy a bag of cabbage for 5,000 francs in Bobo sell it for 12,500 francs in Abidjan. A 17,500 franc bag of onions is sold for 22,500. As you can see, it is a very profitable business that needs to increase its volume of activity. I thank you very much and I hope my business will attract your attention.
The bag of cabbage is paid at $ 10.20 USD Bobo and sold at $ 25.51 USD in Abidjan. The onion bag is paid at $ 35.72 USD and sold at $ 45.92 USD. Finally you will agree with me that this is a good and profitable business that requires capacity building. Thank you very much and I hope my work will draw your attention.
Née a Bobo Dioulasso, grandir dans cette meme ville, je suis mademoiselle Toure Kadiatou. nous sommes au nombre de 13 membres au sein de la famille dont sept filles et six garçons. Mon père n'est plus de ce monde voilà de cela quelques années. Après mon parcours primaire et secondaire j'ai apprise rapidement a transformer cinq francs en dix francs comme on aime le dire très souvent dans notre jargon pour dire a une personne qui ne cesse de ce battre pour son epanouissement. Grace a une amie j'ai connue Zidisha raison pour laquelle je souhaiterai un accompagnement pour donner un coût de pouce a mon activité.
Mon activité consiste a la vente de choux, de tomate et d'oignons. J'ai une expérience de quatre ans dans ce domaine, mon problème majeur est la difficulté d'un accompagnement efficient surtout auprès des micro finance dans mon pays. Je profite de cette occasion qui m'est donné de vous remercier a vous préteurs ainsi que tous les membres de Zidisha qui ne cesse de satisfaire les promoteurs a travers le monde entier en particuliers en Afrique. C'est grâce a une amie que je suis venue a vous et je souhaite hardiment continuer a persévérer dans cette lancé et je promet d’être a jours vis a vis des prêts ainsi obtenus. je voyage une fois par mois sur Abidjan avec ma marchandise a savoir le choux , la tomate et les oignons. Il faut signaler ici que les prix d'achat ainsi que les prix de vente ne sont pas standard et cela est du au fait que les périodes ou ces légumes sont abondantes le prix connait une baisse, mais généralement pendant le mois de décembre janvier et février surtout c'est la période approprie pour la tomate et les choux. Je payes les tomates dans des caisse en raison de trois mille et revendue a Abidjan a dix mille francs soit un bénéfice sept mille. Le sac de choux est paye a cinq mille a Bobo et revendu a doux mille cinq cent francs a Abidjan. Le sac d'oignon est payer a dix sept mille cinq cent et revendu a vingt deux mille cinq cent. En conclusion vous conviendrai avec moi que c'est une activité bien rentable et qui nécessite un renforcement de capacité. Je vous remercie infiniment et j’espère que mon activité attirera votre attention.
