Owusu eric is my name. I come from Berekum in the Brong Ahafo Region of Ghana. I am the only daughter among the two other girls of my family. I have completed my basic education. I entered the senior high school which i dropped out in my final year because my parents could not afford to pay all my registration fees for the West African Secondary School Certificate Examination. I moved out of my home to stay with an uncle in Ejuisu in Kumasi. I decided to learn sewing from his wife who was a seamstress.I qualified in about 8 months time so i came back to Bantama where i worked for about a year. At first business was good but later it turned out to be something else so i decided to start a boutique and do the sewing in my own shop as a part time work.i now have a small cloth store which i plan of expanding with any small money i get. I had a dream of becoming a fashionista and a model in future so fashion in something i love very much. I love making new friends and attending programs especially fashion shows.
I started this boutique business with the small capital i saved whiles doing the sewing as a full time job before the sewing business turned bad. It is a business i love so much, it deals with produced of clothes of all brands such as ralph lauren thus polo,nike,adidas for both males and females. Also, i sell designer wathes such as ck man, versache , Michael korsh and many others. Designer shoes is also not out of my sales, slippers,chains,perfumes and many more. I have been in this business for almost four years now. With this business i have been able to rent my own apartment and left the single room which i used to stay there with my parents and my two other brothers. I am able to pay my own bills and also re stock my boutique with the little profit i make. I value small money so i always save the little money i have to help support my business With the help of zidisha money lenders group i see myself as the owner of one of the biggest boutiques in Kumasi and probably opening new branches in Ghana. Thank you in advance for your kind support to we the local people.
I will take this opportunity to thank the entire Zidisha and money lenders team for your kind support. This loan is going to be channeled to my boutique business by buying more of the products, designer clothes and perfumes to be specific. This will cost about 100 to 120 USD. This product is fast moving and always on a high demand by customers so it is going to add up more to my sales,customers will also get their desired products to buy always, thereby helping me to repay my loan as scheduled.It will help me in my up keeping and also bring a great impact on my business as i have always dreamed of. Thank you.
