About Me
My name is Mary Benewaa, I Come from Kukuom, I was born on 8th July, 1984. I am a single man now managing my own cosmetic store with limited recourses. Throughout my education, I have really enjoyed good parenting as my own parents were educated. I was not denied formal education as in the situation of other women in ethnic differences who believes that a woman's place is in the kitchen not in the classroom. The kind of life style I chose which includes my business and private life was my own decision. The main occupations of people in this area include farming and playing football.
My Business
I started my store on 20th January 2014, after several career alternatives available. I wanted to be responsible for my own failures and successes. With this in mind, I choose to be an entrepreneur. My parents gave me $ 200 which was used as the initial capital. Since then, i have be able to trade with this capital and now i have $100 profit. The items I sell is small since my capital is not enough. I want to include sanitary items and basic home toiletries in future.
Loan Proposal
Help me raise capital to sell more domestic items in my shop. The problem I am facing now is i don’t have enough money to invest in my business so I am just limited in selling few items. I want to add provisions in my shop. These items are of a very high demand and lack of it in my shop does not allow clients to buy from me.
