On-time repayments

I'm a guy of 28 who has a first degree in Economics. Due to the condition of our economy I have now turned to selling Over-The_Counter medicine. I've, through education, lived in communities with different cultural setting. That, I lived in Tamale for Senior High education, at this end, I learnt how the people of the North, even though in the city value tradition and celebrate the Fire Festival and love to help one another out of trouble. Growing up, at certain points, I nearly left school to join my peers who enjoyed everything but school. I really had to discipline myself to go through my primary education. In a community where they spoke a different language from my mother tongue, at Senior High, life after the classroom wasn't easy but I diligently learnt the language and after a year I could find my way around in the life-after-class. All this aside, financially I had to struggle through since my father's income was enough to take care of all the kids satisfactorily.
I'm into the sale of Class C drugs. This business is prudent in my community because most of the people around do manual and almost always demand drugs that can get them going the next day. Sales from the shop would be used in the loan repayment. The typical costs at the shop are the utility bill, house keeping and salary for the shop attendant. The typical revenue outweighs the cost to a very large margin. All the profit gained from the business are reinvested in the the business. I'm looking at a future of turning the shop into a pharmacy so that I can sell wider range of drugs while serving a wider range of people and a wholesale so that other shop would be supplied by my shop.
Pocumol extra $4.00 0 per box
Ferroglobin syrup $5.00 per bottle
Haemotovite Syrup $1.23 per bottle
Zincofer syrup $2.00 per bottle
Mercy cream $0.5 per tube
Ibuprofen 400mg $$3.00
These are the products would reduce the pains most people(farmers) in the community feel after a hard day's work.
Also the blood tonic would help boost hemoglobin and zinc production in the blood thereby enhancing good health.
These products are in high demand, therefore when I'm able to purchase them, it would draw more customer to my shop and profit will raise by at least 5%
