About Me

My name is Elizabeth Okai. I am 18 years of age. I am a Ghanaian and I live in Madina. I attended St. Peter's Mission School for my junior high education and Methodist Girls for my secondary school education.

After school, I decided to venture into business to be able to sponsor my tertiary education. My mother is a petty trader, so things are not rosy at home. I often help her in her trade. I thought of establishing my own business to lift the burden off my parents and create a better future for myself.

Ghana is a very peaceful country with fertile land. Agriculture is a very prosperous business here. My hobbies are listening to music and reading.

My Business

I deal in buying and reselling cosmetics, shoes, bags and jewellery. There are lots of ladies and women who fancy the goods I sell. I chose this kind of business because it's a business that sells out quickly. Sometimes one person can buy three to four different items at one time. I use about $100 to get my goods and I get back a 50% profit, which is $50. I save my profits for school in a bank, then I use the rest to continue my business.

Loan Proposal

I will use this loan to purchase goods to expand my beauty and fashion business. I will buy bags for $100 ,$100 to buy jewelry, $100 to buy shoes, $100 to buy purses ,$183 to buy beauty products for acne.
Reinvesting in this business will give me the opportunity to continue with my schooling and pay a worker I employed to help in the delivery of the goods to customers whilst i'm in class.
I hope for my profit to increase by at least 50%.

      How does that work? I have seen an option to get my loan back right now. Should I do that?

          I didn't mean it like that. I was wondering if I had to do anything to reduce her installments. But thanks!

    currently the installment amount is too big for me to pay.

      Elizabeth,
      I got message that "your loan has expired" and my contribution was returned. Are there issues with loan disbursement in Ghana? Create a support ticket so someone can look into it. If you have to reapply, I will contribute again to your loan.

    I hope that the remaining part of your loan will be funded soon. Good luck!

    Ps. Please work on your on time repayment score. You need a score of 90% or above to get an increased credit limit.
