About Me

I started school at bishop Essuah at Takoradi after which i pursue my secondary school at Bompeh secondary Technical School also at Takoradi after my secondary education things became tough, therefore furthering to tertiary became impossible. I therefore decided to do a little trade, by so doing i was able to gather something to help me enter Takoradi Polytechnic where i studied marketing. After my tertiary education i serve at Atebubu Government Hospital for one year as my nation services. Finding a job was not easy so two years of searching for job without finding any i decided to revisit what i was doing when i completed secondary school.

My Business

As a trained marketer i thought it wise to put into practice what i learnt at school, so i decided to enter into the food industry selling Eggs on wholesale to retailers. i choose food industry because of it consumable nature which therefore means repeated business. After some research i also realized that almost everybody in Ghana eat one egg a day, with a population of about 24 million then it means the egg business will not be bad to enter into. getting eggs in bulk from the Brong and Ahafo where most of the poultry farms are located is not an easy task and costly too getting a full container of eggs and transporting it all the way to the western region will cost about USD 12,850 per trip. I intend to reinvest profit i get into my business and also to use some to further my education.

    Christina was able to make the majority of her payments on time and her volunteer mentor helped provide updates when she was unable to.

    Sorry lenders for the delay in the payment of my loan, it was due to circumstances beyond my control. Moreover I was not receiving update on my payment which made me to think otherwise, though I haven't started work yet, but I will pay the outstanding amount right away.
