About Me

My name is Joycelyn Awuni. Many people prefered calling me ''Joy Joy'' .I come from Techimantia, a tomatoe farming community in the Brong Ahafo Region of Ghana. I was born on 7th day of march 1986. This made me 30 years young. My parents are Mr.and Mrs. Dede. I attended Techimantia Presbyterian high school. When I completed the Senior High School, my parents wanted a bright future for me so they enrolled me in one of the better schools in the Region but I could not pass all my papers so I was not admitted in the tertiary institution. I felt that I had disappointed my parents but the issue did not bother them as much , My parents still assisted me to enter into the world of business, they gave me $460 to start. I sell new and second hand clothes in my shop. The landscape of my town supports tomato farming. As such, about 80% of the inhabitants of this town and its surrounding communities are tomatoes farmers.

My Business

I started my business with a little over $300 which was given to me by my parents. I sell new and second hand Clothes in my shop. Because I packaged my collections well, people always buy from my shop ,it has not been displayed in an open space but I have arranged it in types and sizes and age groups. So people always buy from my shop ,my prices are also moderate .I chose this type of business because it does not have an expiring date, cost involve is not much and the profit is also encouraging. I earn at least $44 to $52 a week. I use some of my profit to pay taxes and utilities, feeding and first aid . The rest is reinvested in the business.

Loan Proposal

When my loan is fully funded, I will include more foreign clothing and official wears in my shop so that people who need official wears can also buy from my shop. After investing, I expect my business profit to increase to at least $52 to $62 a week.
