About Me
When I was about to complete my Junior high school, farming business was at its peak, people were making huge profits from so I decided to save little of every money I got so that i could start my business someday. Korang Benjamin is my name and when I started my Senior High School, I INVESTED part of my saved money in farming business which at that time had become very lucrative. I got much profit from it which I used to clear my mother's land which had been left years with the experience I got from my farming business and everything is working fine thanks to the zidisha team
My Business
It was very difficult to raise such a capital for this business but when I made most part of the money needed, I started and things turn very tough for me at that time. This made me sought to find a different job elsewhere and I became a shop assistance at a nearby supermarket in my neighborhood. When I started, it wasn't good at all for me but I am a goal must be achieve oriented person so I pressed on until things stabilized for a while for me. And this was the time I quickly started learning how to correct the mistakes I made and made things right so as to get the business back on its feet. So I quickly talked to my mum that I wanted to use her land for farming and she agreed. All I am looking for is to use her land to, expand my own business. now I wish the entire team of zidisha help me out on this because I will be the most happiest man if my dream is realized.
Loan Proposal
Dear Zidisha, Thank you very much for previous loan. This year I have acquired 2 acres of land for my vegetable farm. I have already cleared the land and transplanted the tomato seedlings. The plants have started flowering and in order to get a good yield I need 6 bags of fertilizer and pesticide. this will cost me about $500 . When I get this money I will be able to buy fertilizers which will boost my yield and also the pesticide will help me tackle pest problem I'm facing. Last two weeks I applied for Gh 1998 but I did not get the funding I was expecting. Please lenders kindly fund my loan this time to enable me achieve my aim this time . As you can see i have repaid all my previous loan and I promise to pay on timer this time round. I hope to get about 80 boxes of tomatoes this year which will enable me repay this loan and again aid me to take care of parents and younger sister. Thank you.
