I am the last born of a family of four. My passion for youth development and farming made manifest when I was 16years old. I studied Agriculture at the Senior High level and tertiary level. The problem of youth unemployment challenged me to start my own business in Landscape development. I now have a poultry farm business to support my community and earn an income. Togetherness is one unique key in my nation Ghana. My hobby is reading, farming and research.
Greepec farms is into snail rearing, mushroom and poultry farming. It is a lucrative venture due to the high demands by people and its profitability. Also since most of our diet intake is animal protein the business has yielded me good returns to take care of my family and parents. Feeding cost is a major challenge but profit is about 80% assured after sales. Mostly i use profit to expand my business.
The loan amount will be used to secure 200 Day Old Chicks for the Christmas Season. The demand and market for chicken is very high during this period and thus will increase my profits. Since I have been able to expand my poultry house, I now have the opportunity to increase the bird size of my farm and meet the needs of my community.
