About Me

I was born on August 3, 1990. I started my primary and junior high education at Dusbuliga D/A school in the Garu district if the upper east region. I gained admission into Bolgatanga she in 2005. after completion, I helped my parents on the farm to raise money to further my education. After completing Sunyani polytechnic with a higher national diploma in management, I went into pigs rearing which am now operating with ten pigs. the culture of my people has helped me to be respectful and accommodating wherever I find myself. I intent giving my children the best id education from the proceeds of my pig farm. I like farming since childhood and I watch football during my leisure periods.

My Business

I provide pork to my clients. pork is highly consumed the people hence there is high demand for it. I chose this business because it's convenient and allows me to do other chores. Spending on the feeds which comprises grinded maize, rice, cassava which I spend about 20 CEDI's a week and I get the revenue from the pigs I seel to my clients. I have used the profits to expand my business.

Loan Proposal

If this loan is approved and the money disbursed, I will use the loan to purchase maize flour as feed for the pigs. I will also use part of the loan to start a business in smocks. I have tried selling smocks and the feedback I have received had so far been positive. This loan will afford me the opportunity to venture into this business which I am sure will be successful.
