About Me
I am the first among five and from a God fearing family. I am an intelligent and clever both in school and in the business community. I had every support I needed in my early childhood days but everything changed when my dad went in for another woman.
Things became so difficult that I had to sell SIM cards and credit cards on the street to take care of my family. I was saving to start something on my own and I had a help from an old friend who supported me financially.
I moved from Kumasi to stay at Kintampo because it's a developing town with lot of opportunities. Kintampo is a farming community where most of the educated still farm on part time. After some time I realized most of the people had started building and so I decided to start selling building materials. I would also love to sell farming tools and equipments since farming is like a culture here. I am not married at the moment and have no kids.
My Business
Kintampo is a developing town where most are now building so building materials are the items most people buy so I sell building materials like oil paints and emulsion paints. I also sell nails of all inches and sizes. I sell pick axe and shovels. I have also started asking about cement sales since that is what the people buy most but I can start now since it demands a lot of money so I have decided to attach wood selling to raise enough capital to start the cement business.
Loan Proposal
I want to expand my building materials business to attract more customers in order to generate more income so I can help finance my siblings in school. I want to attach cement selling to my shop. I want to also sell roofing sheets and plywood of all types. I want to also sell iron rods of all sizes. With this loan I will be able to get all these things in order to expand my business.
