About Me

I was born in Dormaa Ahenkro. I attended Dormaa Presbyterian Primary School and continued to junior high school in Dormass Junior High School. I was able to raise a loan to purchase the tools I would need for my job and I also started selling cosmetics in my shop. Where I live, Tuesday of every week is set aside for market. Many people from all walks of life come from the neighboring towns and villages to buy and sell.

My Business

I dress hair and sell artificial hair and other hair creams. Dormaa Ahenkro is a municipality whose citizens are enlightened, so many of the youth are engaged in appearing decent thereby making different hair styles. People from the neighbouring towns and villages come to the general market to buy things for their villages and towns. This is where creams and artificial hairs and other things they will need are bought. Most people buy in larger quantities to retail in their places of abode. I chose this business because of that.

Loan Proposal

To begin with,I wish to thank my lenders for the recent loan funded. I'm indeed happy for how far that loan improved my income status. I wish to buy one stand hair dryer $21 in addition to the two that I have to make it three. My customers keep on increasing and I don't want them to be queuing in my shop because their hairs are washed and want to dry. In addition to this, I will buy human hair $14.9 five ear pads $12.2, I will buy thirty litres of shampoo for washing hair. I also need to buy three basins $13.2 to enable me to fetch water nearby wells since the town' s tap has developed some fault. Thank you very much my lenders and I am counting on your usual cooperation.

About Me

I was born in Dormaa Ahenkro I attended Dormaa Presbyterian primary school and continued Junior high school in Dormass Junior high school. After Junior High I proceeded to Saint James Senior High in Suyani, the regional capital of the Brong-Ahafo region. Sincerely speaking I was not good academically but my interest was in artesanship. My secondary education ended in only the second year.I told my dad I wanted to learn hair dressing and that he went and paid for me to start learning. After I graduated, my dad raised some moneyto purchase the tools I will need for my job and also started selling hair creams and human hair in my shop. Tuesday of every week is set aside for market. Many people from all walks of life come from the neighbouring towns and villages to buy and sell. This when I make a lot of profit became I see more customers who have come for newly hair styles to show when they return to their various villages. They also buy in bulk some of the cosmetics that I sell and artificial finger nails especially the hair dressers amongst them. My town is an interesting place to live since there is peace and that allows every individual to go on his/ her normal activities. The only problem here is that most of the youth are engaged in smoking Indian hemp and also alcoholism is prevalent in most of the communities, but above all these,there is peace.

My Business

I dress hair, sell artificial hair and other hair creams. Dormaa Ahenkro is a municipality whose citizens are enlightened. Many of the youths are decent in appearance I make different hair styles for my customers and sell human hair and hair creams in addition. People from the neighbouring towns and villages will come to the general market to buy things to their villages
and that is when I receive most of my customers. They buy creams and human hair and other things they will need. Apart from dressing hair, my customers buy in larger quantities,
hair creams and human hair to retail in their respective places of abode. Interest is what I considered before going into this kind of business and I considered it to be the only business that would require less capital to start with. Interestingly,I have engaged three apprentices who also pay to me to learn the job. Easter and some funeral ceremonies gives me the opportunity to enjoy some profits. This is when majority dress their hairs to meet the occasion.

    Many thanks to my numerous funders who have made my hair dressing job lifted like this. I must confess that I'm actually impressed with Zidisha loan. Its makes me feel free to do my job. I have enough time to work relax without thinking that someone will drug me to the law court because I owe. I wish to thank all my lenders and the Zidisha team how far you have brought me. It is amazing to see how rapidly my shop is growing with customers. Indeed I'm making profits daily and my family feels happy everyday. We have enough of quality food to eat,portable water to drink and above all good clothes to wear. Life is changing rapidly all because of Zidisha loan. Thank you very much.

    I'm by this forum want to thank my lenders for their support. Indeed the recent loan amount granted to me enabled me to ease congestions in my shop because I was able to buy all the items I needed to use in my shop to work on my customer' s hair. I will conclude by saying that my profit is indeed growing and I'm of the hope that my next loan if funded will change the face of my business entirely.

    I want to thank my lenders that the loan amount funded has improved my hair dressing job. The hair dryer that I bought has eased congestion. My customers dry their hair so easily and has increased my income.My shop is always busy with customers,all because the hand dryer is aiding my pony styles. I can do more hair styles and I m saving seriously to expand my hair business. With time,I should be able to build a very big store with the profits that I m getting from my business.
