my name is Richard Sarpong. I started fending for myself at an early stage of 13 years.
I mended shoes to take care of my self and pay for my education. Though my parents were alive, they were not financially sound.
I completed secondary education through self support and partial scholarship.
I completed wesley college in 2000 and was employed by the Ghana education service.
In 2006, I left Ghana Education Service and started a computer hardware and software training centre.
in 2013, I was employed by the Prudential Bank Ghana.
I was educated as a teacher as I completed Wesley college of education In Kumasi Ghana. I worked with The Ghana education service for 4 years. after the four years, My interest in Information Technology, filming making and photography grew stronger. I then started a private office and begun doing local movies and photography.
I also recently started a transport management service.
I have grown to become resilient person and now I am also a Pastor.
I currently run two major businesses.
1. PHOTO AND VIDEO STUDIO: I have a studio for photography and video works where I do photography. I also manage social media platforms for individuals and organisations such as churches.
we do videos and upload photos and videos to their social media accounts.
2. TRANSPORT MANAGEMENT: I manage vehicles for the vehicle owners by finding operators and drivers for the vehicles. I also take care of all expenses and faults of the vehicles so that vehicles owners do not have to go through the ordeals.
I charge a commission on all sales made by the vehicles and pay the vehicles owners the sales due them.
I use the loan to help purchase vehicle parts to ensure that that my vehicles stay in business. I intend using this loan to support the money I have already saved to buy a set of vehicle tires for two of my vehicles which currently have worn out tires that need to be replaced urgently.
Due to the able management of the government of my country, the effect of covid 19 in my country has not been very much drastic.
currently, the country is under minimal restrictions. my drivers are able to make their sales weekly and I am very sure that God is always on my side. I will repay the loan on time.
