About Me

I am a traditional healer. I am married and I am the father of four children, two girls and two boys. At school, I stopped at the level of eleventh grade. After my studies, I did the laboratory research for the agro food industry. I live in a un-subdivided neighborhood, I opened a small research enterprise in which I practice traditional medicine. In my enterprise I make medicinal preparations and I pack the finished products. This is also my selling point where I receive every day dozens of people who come a little bit from everywhere.

My Business

I produce drugs based on therapeutic herbs and I take care of patients. My patients visit me at my home to get treatment. People are happy with my competence and the quality of the care that I provide. During one day I can sometimes make a benefit of twenty five thousand (25,000) Francs CFA, sometimes it is also less. Expenses are primarily for the production of medicines and to pay the rent of my house, transport, logistics and food for myself and my family. I intend to develop the business by opening some outlets around the country.

Loan Proposal

I am asking for this loan to fund the production of medications, specifically to equip me with materials and to create other points of sale. One part of the money will go towards the raw ingredients that make up the finished products, and another part will be used to pay for the service of people who help me prepare them.

About Me

je suis tradipracticien de santé. je suis marié et je suis père de Quatres enfants, Deux filles et Deux garçons. Au niveau études, j’ai arrêté en classe de Terminale « D ». Après les études j'ai fait le laboratoire en industrie Agro-Alimentaire. je vis dans un quartier non loti, j'ai ouvert un petit cabinet d'études dans laquelle j'exerce la médicine traditionnelle. Dans ce cabinet, J’y fait les préparations et les conditionnement des produits finis. C’est aussi mon point de vente où je reçoit par jour, des dizaines de personnes qui viennent d’un peu partout.

My Business

Je produis des médicaments à base des plantes naturelles et je soigne. Les patients viennent me consulter chez moi pour obtenir les traitements. Les gens sont satisfaits pour ma compétence et la qualité des soins que je dispense. Par jour je peux gagner parfois Vingt Cinq Mille (25 000) Francs CFA, des fois aussi c'est moins. Les dépenses sont surtout pour la production des médicaments et la location de ma maison, les déplacements, la logistique et les vivres pour moi et ma famille. Je compte développer l’établissement en ouvrant certains points de vente un peu partout dans le pays.

Loan Proposal

Je demande ce prêt pour renforcer la production des médicaments en m'équipant de matériels et pour créer d'autres points de ventes. Une partie de l’argent servira aussi à l’achat de matière première destiné à la préparation des produits finis. Et une autre partie servira à payer la main d’œuvre des personnes qui vont se mettre à mon service dans les différentes préparations.

    I intend to equip me with a distillation apparatus for improving the production of phyto-medicines in quantity and especially in quality; I plan to build cabinets for storage of finished products. I wanted to use these funds employed herbalists who will supply me with the raw material for production.

    Thank you for the confidence you have placed in me by giving me this big loan worth 712 333F CFA that I have been able to access at ECOBANK Bobo II on 02/09/2015.

    I have made a new cabinet to store some drugs already supplied. This loan will also allow me to purchase packaging equipment to enhance production and the primary materials which are difficult to acquire to avoid running out etc...

    I do not know how to thank you for the great help you have given me and pray the Almighty to grant you health and longevity so that you continue to support us.

    My family joins me to tell you again THANK YOU.

    Hi Alitou,
    Great to see that you are doing well and always repaying on time.
    In fact, if I could make a recommendation...
    If you are finding it easy to make the current repayments, you might want to consider rescheduling to pay the loan off early.
    That way you could save interest!!!
    Formidable de voir que vous faites bien et toujours rembourser à temps.
    En fait, si je pouvais faire une recommandation ...
    Si vous trouvez qu'il est facile de faire les remboursements actuels, vous pourriez envisager un rééchelonnement de payer le prêt de bonne heure.
    De cette façon, vous pourriez économiser intérêt !!!
    All the best
    Michael.

    Thanks to all the lenders who kindly put together the financial means to improve my business. Indeed, with this loan I can buy a cabinet for storing finished products (medicines), do local redevelopments and buy a lot of materials for production.

    For this moment everything is okay and I hope I won't disappoint you ...
