I am Juliet Ashiagbor, 36years of age and ghanaian. I have three siblings. i hail from the volta region and stay at Dome pillar two. i hold a first degree in business administration, Accounting. Am also a beadmaker.
Growing up, life was smooth. My parents did all their best to cater for us. Things became a bit difficult after we lose our mum and later dad retired from active service. Being the first born, i had to fend for the family hence my enrollment in bead making . Am enthusiastic about all i do. My joy is seeing others happy.
In 2021, i started a food business and went on to enroll for a cooking school. Food is a basic need and Ghana is no exception. Food plays a vital role in our gatherings- marriage, funeral and many more. There is a very large market for this business in my country, especially now that lots of people are busier. I sell to individuals, homes and corporate entities.
I own a cosmetics and personal care business, import and consultancy business. The businesses are ran separately one from another.
I typically make between 20% to 40% profit from the cosmetics business. I reinvest my profits back into the business and also cater for the family. My difficulty now is to raise an amount enough to help me purchase more stock due to higher demands. This fund will help me bring the transportation cost down drastically and also stock more goods for customers.
I am currently pursuing a Distance Learning programme in Bsc Business Administration, Accounting option at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST), Accra Centre. I am in level 300 and I am to pay Ghc 1,250.00 per semester which is equivalent to USD 366.00 but I have been able to save GHc750.00 ($220.00). So this loan will help pay my tuition in addition to the little I got from my teaching. Help me Zidisha to overcome difficulties in my education and supporting my family. The academic calendar has already begun. So this money will help me pay my school fees before the deadline. This loan will entirely erase pressure on my monthly salary hence the repayment plan I chose. It is a matter of urgency so i could not save within the period. Am confident i will repay this loan within the period chosen. Zidisha, thank you for your continuous support to make us better humans.
