About Me
My name is John Kwesi Dei. I am married with two children. I currently live in Ghana in a city called Accra. In Accra, I stay at Achimota. I am an Account Officer by profession but lost my job 2 years ago. This challenged me a lot, and I was left to start my own business: Jodek Farms. I have developed interest in managing my own business and seeing to it that many others- both workers and customers benefit from it as has been my dream. I have been to college education and have acquired some few knowledge and certificates in short courses relating to my field.
In my business, I use my earnings to buy feed for my fowls and use part to keep the environment safe for the fowls. Though it has not been effective as expected, I know it will get better with your help. I use my leisure time to read more about my industry and connect with people with like passion and mind.
My Business
The name of my business is Jodek Farms. Jodek Farms is a poultry farm with over 600 birds. I established this business in May 2003. With this business I am able to supply day-old-chicks, eggs and chickens to individuals and other businesses which may be in need.
In Ghana, a large section of the population buys eggs to add up to their meal if they cannot afford meat and fish. This has made my business a lucrative one. Also, because of my vision to enlarge this business to a global standard and my impressive progress, many people patronize in my chickens especially when they are considering health and hygiene. I am also building a formidable and healthy relationship with my customers on a daily basis. This has been the reason and a secret in my business - the reason why people will patronize in my business than other competitors, particularly in this industry.
I am challenged to buy healthy feed and to provide conducive temperature for the poultry especially in harsh environmental conditions. I really want to expand by so doing overcome these risks. Some of my chicken die out of diseases and sicknesses I am not able to handle because of financial difficulties.
At this preliminary moments of intense challenges, I make less than GHC 300 profit in a month. I am determined to use this loan to increase my profit margin 2 times the amount mentioned.
Loan Proposal
I am sincerely grateful for your good work to support some of us in Africa. The loan upon reception will be use to buy more day old chicks. I began my business this year and I need this support to raise it to a level that I can have about 1000 day-old chicks. This beginning will really help me sustain my presence in the business sector and dream to own many poultry farms across the nation. However, without this support I may not be able to own thousands of fowls I have purposed to have by the end of this year.
It will really be of help if lenders help me with this amount. As a young guy with a wife and family it will help me put food on the table for my family. This opportunity will also help me raise a good and healthy poultry farm which will attract more clients.
