About Me

Born in Bobo Dioulasso, my married name is Elisabeth Oué Traoré. Being married and a mother, I've had to balance my life as a married woman with my professional life as a merchant, and it's for this reason that I set up a shop selling shoes for women and children located in the city of Bobo and not far from the Sangoulé Laminaza stadium. I went to school and graduated high school and I know how to use computers. Currently I am president of the association called "Balimaya" which means Brotherhood. Thanks to my sister I heard of the microfinance Zidisha, and this is why I come to you now to apply for funding with the aim to expand my small business. Thank you.

My Business

I am a merchant thanks to my mother, and it is an activity I practiced from my childhood during the holidays. Currently I travel a lot in Togo, specifically in Lomé to buy wholesale products: shoes, hair extensions, as well as clothes for women and children. For example, a shoe can be sold for a profit of 400 CFA francs and more. I sell an average of twenty per day and when it's a holiday season such as Tabaski, Christmas, or New Year I can reach forty per day. I would like, then, to benefit from your support to achieve my goals. All the best to you.

Je suis commerçante qui fait de l’importation et cela grâce à ma mère. Je voyage beaucoup dans la sous région et souvent en Turquie dans le but de payer mes marchandises .Je remercie Dieu car j’ai actuellement un capital de plus de $ 9872
Le pagne est considéré en Afrique comme un symbole identitaire et culturelle, car il peut à travers ces différents motifs véhiculés des messages (bonheur ou malheur). Le marché africain est en ce moment inondé de pagne contrefait provenant très souvent du continent Asiatique précisément de la chine. Ces pagnes ce reconnaissent par leur prix très bas et de qualité inferieur. Moi je vends dans ma boutique toute les différents types de pagnes car j’ai une diversité de clients (des personnes dont le revenu est élevé, moyen, ou peu). Je suis assisté dans mon commerce par 3 personnes qui sont :
01 GERANTE – 01 VENDEUSE – 01 qui gère la comptabilité et me fait régulièrement le point des vente effectuées au cours de la journée
Le commerce de pagne, de chaussures est une activité noble dont je voudrais toujours chercher à faire prospérer cette activité. Je voudrais bénéficier auprès de vous honorable prêteurs la somme de 996 dollars dans l’objectif d’effectuer avant les fêtes de RAMADAN, un voyage sur LOME au Togo pour acheter en quantité et en qualité suffisant des pagnes que je reviendrai vendre a Bobo. Pour ce voyage je voudrais ajouter mon apport personnel d’un montant $ 2575 soit un total de (2575 +996 = 3571). C’est une activité que je menai depuis ma tendre enfance pendant les vacances donc j’ai une grande expérience dans ce domaine. Votre accompagnement me sera très utile car il va me permettre d’augmenter mon portefeuille. Je vous remercie.
