About Me

Joyce Teley Mensah is my name. I am a Ghanaian by birth and a married woman with two kids. I am 32 years of age. I own an enterprise that deals in sales of all kinds of home supplies and provisions. My products includes soaps, cooking utensils, biscuits, canned foods and water storage plastic containers etc.

My Business

'Gye Nyame Minimart.' is the name of my enterprise. It's a roadside venture that deals in retailing of home supplies and provisions for domestic use. Products such as soaps, cooking oil and utensils, plastic plates and water storage containers are samples of what we deal in. It is my hope to make it a supermarket. Plans are underway to make this dream a reality and I believe Zidisha is going to be the one to make this come true.

Loan Proposal

The purpose of this loan is to buy the most demanding product which is 'plastic food containers" which is what most liquid food vendors used in packaging their foods like 'ice kenkey' 'sobolo' etc to furnish my shop. The profit is going to be reinvested into the business.

    Hello Lenders! Sister Joyce had been robbed of her goods but she is optimistic to repay her loan as she is working on that.

    Dear Lenders! Joyce Mensah has called to inform me of her decision to catch up with her loan payment after the funeral of her step dad is performed.The loss of her dad has brought a halt to her business since she has to stay with her mum as she mourns. Pardon her for her delay.

    There is a reduction in the production rate of the plastic storage bottles at the production end of purchase and been the main reason for applying for this loan. This has prompted for the decision to reduce my repayment amount to suit the status of the business as it stands now but hopefully will increase when things start to improve again.

    Dear Lenders, it is unfortunate I couldn't get to you all this while. I lost my phone 2 days after my first loan repayment. I would go for a SIM replacement on Monday and do my loan repayment. Thanks reaching me through my referee.
