About Me

My name is Oppong James Bafana. I am a Ghanaian by birth. I am 28 years old. I come from kukuom, a village in the Asunafo South district of Ghana. I am single and serious business minded person who believe that nothing is impossible with a positive effort and determination (A journey of 1000 kilometres begins with a step). I am the tenth born of my parents. My late father married four wives. I couldn't have access to formal Education because of the number of siblings I have. So I became responsible for my self and upbringing at a tender age. I use to do minor jobs to help my mum in the daily upkeep of thee house. I don't wish to marry more than one in future because of what my father did to my mum who was the first wife among his three other wives.

My Business

I started my business with the little amount I raised from shoe repairing business which I did for two years.
Recently, a good friend introduced me to second hand clothing business. I buy and sell secondhand cloths specifically, mens wear. I travel with it on my bike to the surrounding towns near my village. My capital is quite small. This does not help me in getting beautiful cloths that will attract my customers. I do have big dreams like to get my own store room for my business, take care of my siblings educationn and several others. To achieve this dream, I need to work extra hard. To good people like you, I plead that you lend to me money to buy more bails to sell. I want to write a positive life story this year. Please help! Let my dream come true. Thank you.

Loan Proposal

My first loan was used to buy more second hand clothing and my business is growing well and my profit has increased a little. I will purchase more clothing in bulk so that my business will grow well and also include new - clothing to my second - hand clothing.
