About Me
My name is Youssoupha Samb, I was born the 25th of October in 1987 in Dakar. I did my studies in transportation services, with that I obtained my BBA. I will begin in January to work towards my Masters in international business and commerce. At the moment, I am an intern at an organization called SEM Fund and have been with this organization since July 2011. I live in the Virage area of Dakar with my parents. I am a young man and I enjoy kickboxing, listening to music, and spending time with my friends and family. I have three younger brothers and two younger sisters, and we all live together in my parents home. I live in Virage which is a nice place next to the beach and I have the oprotunity to spend time there. I have started my own business because in Senegal there are very little job opportunities, so as a young person I am forced to throw myself into many different types of business. I have been an intern for over a year, and without a more serious job it is essential that I become an entrepreneur in order to make money. I very much want to get my masters degree and with the loan that I get through Zidisha and the money that I earn from my small business I will be able to pay the expensive school fees.
My Business
In fact, I already working hard to make different types of juice without added sugar sale added. The mango hibiscus, tamarind, ginger. I have a fridge full of these bottles! But I lack in space. I must buy a deusième refrigerator.
I am in contact with supermarkets and fast food in their potential to provide local juice.
At this point, I "am working on my product labeling. Design is already developed, but I am still testing different types of glue to use.
It remains only to put the logo on the bouteille.Cela proved to be the most difficult part so far, due to condensation drip pan paper.
I am very grateful for my loan, and I assured you that I will comply with the repayment schedule.
Below you can see that I work SemFund where I work during the day to help manage entrepreneurial social and environmental goals.
Loan Proposal
I looked into the fast food business. At the beginning I wanted to sell them chicken. But I realized that poultry farming represented a much bigger investment. I noticed that Fast foods use a lot of vegetables, and they do so on a daily basis. Every sandwich purchased comes with fries. The purpose of my loan is to build a micro vegetable garden and sell the produce to fast foods. I plan on starting with lettuce, and if I am successful I will also produce onions and tomatoes.

Loan Proposal
j'ai fait des enquêtes au niveau des fast food . Au tout début je voulais leur vendre des poulets ?. Mais il se trouve que j'aurais besoin alors de beaucoup plus d'argent . j'ai remarqué que les fast food utilisaient beaucoup de légumes. Tout sandwich acheté on y met des légumes. Et c'est quelque chose de quotidien . L’objectif de mon prêt est de pouvoir faire un micro jardin et ensuite vendre les légumes dans les fast food . je pense commencer par produire de la salade . et ensuite si ça marche bien je compte produire a coté des oignons des tomates .
