About Me

Johnson Amankona is my name, forty one (41) years old. I was born and raised in a village called Biadan which is about one and half kilometer away from a town called Berekum in the Brong Ahafo Region of Ghana. I am a married man with two children, a boy and a girl whose age is 15years and 12 years respectively. I am dark in complexion and about 4.3 feet tall. I was able to complete my Junior High Education and entered into tailoring which is currently my occupation. The food I cherish most is fufu and palm nut soup with fish which is one of our favorite local foods here and the game I like to play and watch most is soccer and volley ball. I like listening to reggae music’s. I love to share the little that I have with anyone I meet in my way and always open to advice from anyone.

My Business

I am a tailor by profession; I have been into this noble profession for 15 years now. I sew both male and female dresses and clothing’s which is helping me a lot. Notwithstanding, I able to bring up a lot of youth in my community to be now self dependant. They are all working as tailors in all parts of our township and nearby villages and as I am speaking I have with me ten (10) apprentices who are for training to become tailors. I have been sewing dresses for individuals but some institution also place an order for me to sew their dresses for them more especially schools and colleges. I am always loyal to my customers; I am also able to sew dresses the way they like and this has resulted to the growth of my business till now. There is still a lot that I can do to help improve the life of people in my community and I know with the support from Zidisha and its remarkable Lenders, my dreams will be accomplished. Thank you.

LOAN REPAYMENT
I will be able to pay my loan simply because; I am able to raised profit from sewing people’s clothing. The profit I earn is able to pay my loan for every week. I promise to pay every week without any delay.

Loan Proposal

Thanks Zidisha team for the opportunity given to me to raise another loan. I intend to use this loan to purchase clothing to sew school uniform for the pupil of Methodist Senior High School located at Biadan. I have been sewing their school uniform for the past seven years and I m able to yield profit from that. I promise to pay back my loan as the terms and condition demands. Thank you very much for your support.

    Hey Johnson, any problems? Would you like to reschedule your last repayments? In the backend I see it´s possible to receive an advance repayment out of the Members Loan Fund Deposit for your loan but I think it would be fair to hear from you – may be it´s just a small delay, so I don't like you to get in trouble with this...

      Dear JK
      Thank you very much for your follow up. I truly appreciate it. My payment was made alright just that there was technical problem with our mobile money payment system, that account for the delay. I hope it has been corrected. God bless you for your continual support.

    Hi Johnson, as I read from your business experience and perspectives (and realized your short repayment schedule) I immediately decided to jump in and give your loan application the boost needed to be fully funded right now :) Have a NICE day and a good time!

    BTW: I would love to see some of your nice dresses and school uniforms. May you like to show off a little of your talent and products right here on the photo slide show?
