About Me
My full name is Takyi Mends but people usually call me Alhaji. There was this beautiful lady(Muslim) in my area (during my Junior High School days) that i liked so much but said we can only be together only if i was a Muslim therefore my friends began to called me Alhaji in order to help me win her, that earned me that nickname.
I am my parents' second born among the three children that they have. Like most homes in Africa, i was not all rosy growing up but by God's grace i was favoured enough to complete my Senior High School education at Berekum Presbyterian Senior High School and later furthered it at a private tertiary school in Kumasi, Ghana.
I am very extrovert and i like to talk and express myself a lot. I am addicted to learining the best wat of communicating with people because i have realized interaction with people can really affect our lives both positive and negatively.
I enjoy watching tv and reading information on the internet.
I eat a lot; Emotuo with groundnut soup is my favourite dish. I also enjoy fruits a lot especially oranges.
My Business
I run a registered and licensed pharmacy shop in my residence, Brenyekwa, Berekum. It can be located just closer to the KIA station. My senior brother and I opened this shop but i am the only one in charge of it now and responsible for the day to day running of this noble pharmacy.
Initially we opened this pharmacy through the savings that we made during our days in tertiary institution and doing menial jobs during vacations. We chose to open a pharmacy because we loved that profession. Today we are very grateful for the pharmacy because our hard work and dedication has really paid off.
It has not only earned us a living but also saved lives of people in our community.
We sell drugs lilke folic acid, epiderm(cream for skin rashes).
Lumefanthrine which is an anti-malaria drug, Multi-vitamins, Arthemether injection and drugs and many more
Loan Proposal
I need about $152 to invest in my pharmacy shop. I would like to buy $75 worth of Coartem (anti-malaria drug) ; one of the most effective drugs in treating malaria . Malaria has been a big threat to people’s health especially children in the tropics and despite the business side of pharmacy, we also help to save lives.
I would invest $48 in purchasing a bulk of Glibenclamide for treating Diabetes which is very common in my region and responsible for many deaths. I would invest the remaining amount in Nifedipine which is also effective in treating High Blood Pressure.
I would invest the requested loan because they mostly needed and purchased on daily basis. Due to the high demand I would be able to make good sales quickly and repay the loan back effectively.
Thank you.
