About Me

I am married and the mother of one child. After high school, I completed one year of university, then two years of professional training as a medical secretary (2004-2006) and three years as an executive assistant (2007-2008). In 2008 I launched my own business. With this, I would like to request from you a loan.

My Business

My business is the sale of medical products to clinics and hospitals, including supplies, solutes, anesthetic products for surgical procedures, and orthopedic products and materials. I decided to undertake the creation of my own business when I realized that I could follow others’ example to become a supplier myself, because after my professional training I was hired by a clinic (a Blue Cross clinic) as a pharmacist, as I had studied some pharmacy during my professional training. My future business activities will include offering medical products from my own shop, which will house my inventory. At the moment, I work with partners who provide my inventory but I am obliged to store it piecemeal in dispersed places. I have many clients who ask me for materials and products and are always ready to place orders with me. My clients like to do business with me for the simple reason that I provide quality products, and deliver them as quickly as possible. This is possible because I have long experience in this trade, having worked for other medical suppliers in the past. I have taken four loans from Crédit Mutuel Sénégalais, two for 500,000 Francs CFA (about USD 1064), and two for 1,000,000 Francs CFA (about USD 2128), which I have repaid in full. I do not currently have any debt to local lenders.

Loan Proposal

I sell pharmaceutical products and medicines to clinics and hospitals. I plan to open my own boutique to store my inventory and sell medical products. Right now I work with suppliers but I have to store my inventory a little at a time in dispersed locations. This loan will allow me to buy inventory from wholesale suppliers, and to rent a vehicle for deliveries. As I sell the products, I will repay what you lend to me and I know that I will have no difficulty in repaying this amount as I could repay in even within 5 months and apply for an even larger loan. I am fully committed and intend to dedicate myself completely to this business. In hopes of a favorable response, I ask tou to kindly accept my sincere greetings. Thank you, Combe Thiaw, Dakar

En ce moment, je travaille avec des partenaires qui me fournissent du materiel mais je suis obligee de les stocker dans des endroits disperses... L\'argent va me servir comme fond de garantie aupres des fournisseurs en gros, et a la location d\'une vehicule pour la distribution du materiel. Au fur et a mesure que je vends les produits je vous rembourserai le montant que vous m\'avez alloue et je sais que ca ne sera pas un probleme de rembourser cette somme car je peux le solder en moins de 5 mois pour demander un pret plus consistente. Car je suis engager et je compte vraiment investir a fonds dans ce domaine. Dans la suite d\'une attente d\'une reponse favorable, je vous prie d\'agreer mes salutations les plus sinceres.

Mon business est la vente des produits médicaux dans les cliniques et les structures hospitalières ce sont:
Les consommables, les solutés, les produits d’anesthésie (bloc opératoire) et les produits et matériels d’orthopédie.
Je me suis lancé dans la création de mon propre business depuis que je me suis rendu compte que je pouvais faire comme tout l’autre fournisseur de la place car après ma formation j'ai été recrutée dans une clinique (clinique croie bleue) comme pharmacienne comme j'avais étudié la pharmacie quand je suivais ma formation.

Mes activités consisteront à la vente de produits médicaux en ouvrant une boutique pour stocker mon matériel. En ce moment, je travaille avec des partenaires qui me fournissent du matériel mais je suis obligée de les stocker dans des endroits dispersés.
J’ai de nombreux clients qui me demandent du matériel ou des produits et qui sont prêts à commander auprès de moi. Les clients aiment venir vers moi pour la simple raison que je fournis du matériel de qualité et aussi rapidement que possible. Mais tout cela marche par ce que je suis longtemps dans le métier, en travaillant pour d’autres structures J’ai eu à bénéficier des prêts auprès du Crédit Mutuel Sénégalais à quatre reprises, (2 fois 500 000 frs et 2 fois 1 000 000 frs) que j’ai entièrement payer. Donc je ne dois rien auprès du crédit de proximité.
