About Me
My name is Eunice Aboagye. I deem it a great honor to be admitted on this platform. Coming up as a child was tough for me. I grew up in one of the isolated villages in my region. One has to cross lagoon before getting to the village. The settlement is scattered. One has to walk a great distance before setting an eye on a building. Most of the buildings are built with mud. Its locally called atakpame building. Farming is the main occupation in my village. Growing up as a child, l hadn't any formal education until l reach the age of fourteen. When l had finally moved to live with my auntie in the city. I served my auntie for couple of years and she did wonderfully by sending me to school. I have completed junior high when l was twenty four years of age. I am happy l can read, write and speak english due to my aunties tremendous help. I have a wonderful daughter who is still young. I was business minded so l took to selling of food crops and vegetables.
My Business
I transport farm produce from my village to the city to sell. Seasonally, I sell food crops such as cassava, cocoyam , yam and vegetables. Food in the city is very expensive and its very cheap in my village. Transporting is kind of hard but I'm happy when l finally hauled it to the city. Food crops and vegetables are scarce in the city so it gives me good market. I am able to make enough profit and the profit is channeled into the improvement of the business, covering of transportation expenses from the village to the city, better services, upkeep of my family and for savings.
Loan Proposal
I will use this loan to buy and transport food crops from my village to the city. It helps those in the city to get food crops to buy since food crops is scarce in the city. It also help my customers from traveling a great distance in search of food crops. When the services of my customers are satisfied my profit margin also increases. This enables me to reinvest into the business thereby making smooth transportation of my goods to the city, make more savings, also see to the upkeep of my home.
