My Business

The name of my pharmaceutical shop is ‘Animako and Sons pharmaceutical shop,’ this pharmaceutical shop is located in my locality which is Mpatasie. Among the six villages which are far away from my community, it is the only community which have well recognize licensed chemical shop. This is always attract other communities to travel from their villages to purchase drugs from my shop to their home towns as prescribe by qualify personnel’s. I started operating this licensed chemical with an initial amount of Gh.1000 cedis only and purchase some of the drugs also too on credit bases. My chemical shop is serving my community and the nearby towns most and some of the drugs I sell under the approval of the Ghana food and drugs board are condoms, palatine tablets, paracetamol, lonart tablet, benelyn cough mixture, etc.

Loan Proposal

I will use the loan to start up another branch of my drug store in a village which is about 14 miles away from my community. I have make a feasibility studies in that locality that peoples in Benkasa locality also walk on foot to the near by towns buy drugs so if set up that shop it will help me acquire more profit.

    I am deeply sorry I have not been able to pay my weekly loan debt as expected from me. I was doing some renovations at my shop because the nature of the shop was not in good state, due to this I was losing more customers and right now I manage to finish with the renovation and business is gradually going on a little bit slow due to poor economic nature of citizens. with this reduction, I will be able to settle my weekly payments as expected from me thank you.

    Hello Animako,
    Do you have any news of Twene Atta, a borrower you invited?

    Business has not been successful since the affordable loan delayed before it was credited into my account. As a result of that I couldn't meet my suppliers on time to provide me with stock. I hope to rescheduled to my normal payments when business is successful.

    In fact am really happy for Zidisha for funding my loan for me. This loan will help me restock my drug shop with new drugs which are short in supply at my shop. The profit that I will gain from the sales would be to pay for children's school fees and also settle some light bill debts. thanks a lot to all my loyal lenders for giving the loan.

    Dear Lenders, thanks for your effort so fall but Thomas is one of the people you can't ignore to fund his loan. I am pleading with you to help fund his loan and he will not fail in any way to pay. Thank you.

    please I have paid my remaining loan which was GH 534 cedis, I paid GH 500 cedis on 23rd September 2015 at exactly 6:27 pm and the remaining gh34 cedis was paid on 4th October 2015. I have a message this morning indicating I have not paid the remaining loan which was GH 534 cedis, I urge your operators to check on my accounts again because they are disgracing my integrity and my reputation.
