About Me

My name is Tandoh Lydia. After Junior High School my parents business scrambled because my father was attacked by arm rubbers and all his capital was taken away. I therefore could not continue with Senior high school but I was so fortunate my parents already have acquired a big store near the main market I took the initiative to go into business and I chose to sell clothing's,that is fabrics. With the help of my parents. Iwas granted a loan from a bank. The interest on the loan amount was high, I worked hard to repay the loan.Dormaa Ahenkro is almost a traditional town that is also a paramountcy. The town is headed by the Aduana clan so even the football team in the area is named after the clan" ADUAN" whose symbol is the Dog.shout aduana and a fun will will respond "OGYA" meaning "fire" I have two children and they all want to be medical officers. I like listening to music and I read a lot on the internet.

My Business

I sell all manner of fabrics to meet all occasions in the municipality. People in Dormaa Ahenkro attend funeral ceremonies. Adoring, church activities and all manner of social activities. In each of these require putting in shape the desired fabric. People from arround the Dormaa Ahenkro township has now chosen my shop to be their business center where they come to buy and retail to others in the neighbouring towns and villages. I chose this kind of business because I saw it to be sustainable and more encouraging in terms of profit . I started this fabric business with a loan amount of Ghc10,000 and now I can boast of arround Ghc30,000. I use part of the profit I make to pay school fees and I also use part to feed the family. The remaining goes back into the business.

Loan Proposal

I will very happy to buy the following fabrics into my shop if my loan is funded and paid to me. I will first of all buy ATL fabrics, thirty piece $32,many of it will be dark in colour because of funeral activities in town. I will also buy about forty pieces of PRINTEX $43, I will also buy WOODEN about fifteen pieces $19. WOODEN is the latest fabric preferred by many in town just because it is universally used,that is for funeral ceremonies,naming ceremonies and many others.

    I want to thank my lenders so much for the loan amount funded. Indeed this loan amount went into my fabric business increasing my stock and generating more profits. At first, business was not encouraging because my customers had not discovered the new things I had added to my stock with the loan.This time,most of my customers buy in bulk to retail. I must also say that these days the most demanded clothe is the funeral type so if my next loan is funded I will go into it more than any other good.

    Many greetings to my lenders. Its been long time. I wish to Inform my lenders that I have been busy with my business throughout the period. Actually your loan is showing difference. At any point in time I have different fabrics to sell. With the little time I get,I travel for more items. This time around it is the funeral clothing that is demanded most. I thank my lenders so much so much. So long as I continue with Zidisha, I hope to see more things happening in my business. Once again thank you and may God Almghy continue to shower his blessings on you.

    thanks to Zidisha and my lenders who made my fabric business look more attractive and appealing to my customers. The new stock added to my stock earned me profits since my store room looked so full of fabrics that attracted customers to buy in bulk to retail in various villages and towns. From the way I am receiving customers it means my next stock will compare me to open a new shop to employ new worker as a sales person to be paid to enjoy the fruits of Zidisha.

    I will buy ATL fabric, GTP fabric and some other foreign fabrics. This is going to help me serve my customers in time since the fabrics are in high demand. I thank my lenders for this very loan and I promise to work hard towards repaying the loan in time.
