About Me

I am Linda Owusu Takyiwaa from Berekum and live in Berekum in the Brong Ahafo Region of Ghana. I am a lady of 34 years old, fair in complexion and about 4.5 feet tall. I had my basic school education at Voice of Deliverance Primary and JHS. I continued from there to Mfantsiman Girls’ Senior High School and completed in the year 2006. I went on to pursue degree in education at the Valley View University. I am currently single and a business woman as well. My hobbies are reading story books and watching soccer whenever I am less busy.

My Business

I am a business woman who deals in plastics containers as well as kitchen equipment such as cooking utensils storage bowls, plates, cups, cutlery sets etc. I have been into this business for the past twelve (12) years and it is very lucrative. I opted for this business due to the high demand for it; one cannot live without these basic necessity. You definitely need it in the house for your cooking and serving of meal, many of the people also use these plastic containers to store water for house use.
Furthermore, I have been supplying cutlery sets and plates to most of the schools in my vicinity. This includes the Basic schools, Senior High School and the Tertiary as well and because there are numerous schools here, business is always at its peak. I have employed two store attendants who always assist me at the shop.

Repayment of loan
I earn greatly from this business and I am going to pay back my loan from the profit I acquire from the sale of my products. Thank you.

Loan Proposal

The loan will be used to purchase more cutlery sets and plates to schools in my vicinity that have contracted me to do so. This supply will earn me much profit which will help me assist my younger siblings in their education since I do that through the profits from my business. If the loan is funded it will increase my profit by 30%.

    Linda is a very serious borrower. She makes regular repayments and increases her repayments, if she can, to repay early. It's a pleasure to lend to her.
    I'll continue to support her next project.

    Hi everyone, I hope we are all having a good new year so far. It's been a while I have been here as my business suffered a great loss as lorry bringing our bulk items was caught with fire and everybody that had stuff on it lost everything including owner of lorry but thank God I've been able to bounce back and hoping to post my next loan

    Patronage has slowed and I dont want to default with my payments hence the reduction in installment amount. Thanks
