About Me

My name is Roland Okai Adjei. I am the first born of my parents with four siblings. I was born and currently live in Ghana in a the city called Accra. I have just finished my tertiary education in the University of Ghana waiting for my National Service.

I realized the need to build a domestic business to help people and make their homes lively. With this vision, I have raised a cold storage business to sell different food stuff like chicken, meat, fish, vegetables and fruits to my clients and ease the stress in traveling far to the market. I have decided to use most of my earnings to expand my business gradually- by raising the standard to a mobile cold storage to reach out to the many clients I have purposed to achieve. Though have not been able to purchase a vehicle with wheels- I have demonstrated my commitment to offer quality services through phone calls, text messages to show my appreciation, and continuously building a cordial relationship with them so that I can effectively identify their core needs as far as cold foods is concern.

I hope to make this business global food chain which will obviously start from Ghana- to a point that I can expand it to feed many deprived people around the world, especially in Africa.

My Business

A visionary Ghanaian citizen in my fourth year in the University of Ghana, I have realized a need to help people with basic domestic food stuff like meat, fish, fresh tomatoes, cabbages and the like. I have a dream of reducing the challenge that comes with traveling very far to the market to buy food stuffs. In Ghana, as it can be said of many countries driving to workplaces and the markets is a big challenge- the huge traffic, time wasting and the stress involved. I also hope to improve on hygiene and packaging that have being loosely considered in my country.

Upon expanding this business it will mean I will be able to reach out to many clients and sell as many food stuff as possible. I believe my business will be preferred to many others simply because of the ease and hygiene I will bring to the homes of my clients which my competitors have not thought about. Consumable goods of this nature unlike other expensive and ostentatious goods sells a lot in Ghana and brings much profit.
I have purposed to use the trust I have gained so far with determination to succeed in this business. Thanks for your help.

Loan Proposal

When I receive the loan, I will use the it to buy plastics for packaging. I will want to continue to increase and maximize hygienic conditions among my customers. I want to as much as it is expected of me to make my cold food packaging attractive to my customers. I will also use this as a competitive advantage over my competitors.

This opportunity will come with a lot of benefits. Customers will be free from diseases. Also, due to the mobile nature of my business customers will save money from transportation and its related stress. This effort will also help me gradually expand my business to other towns and cities in the country and possibly go global in few years ahead.

I need your help to be able to transform the hospitality industry in the country. I believe I have just what my customers want- the hygiene, the quality, the excellence, trust and a deep sense of commitment.

Thank You.
