About Me

I am a 30 year old man who is very much interested in entrepreneurship. I started my basic education at the Jema L/A (now D/A) Basic school and completed in the year 2001 with aggregate 6 in Basic Education Certificate Examination. Since I lost my father in Primary 4, financing my education was a difficulty for my ailing mother. Through the support of my present family (foster family-God richly bless them), I made it to the Senior High School (Kintampo Secondary School) where i passed in the year 2004.
Overcoming hardships has been a miracle. God sent my present family to help me through. Now Although I have a employment as a health worker, I wish to help others who are passing through the same situation I went through.
My passion for farming has earned me a small cocoa farm that has employed one person.

My Business

I have a small cocoa farm for which I have employed people to cater for it. This is about a half acre plot of cocoa. The yield from the cocoa is not encouraging due to inadequate funds to purchase inputs and chemicals to help boost the yield. This problem was solved with my previous loan. Thanks to my lenders. However, I always hire spraying machine which also affects my ability to pay my worker. For this reason, I am unable to pay my employee well and this is affecting his output on the farm. Ghana is one of the major exporters of cocoa in the sub-saharan Africa. Currently the production is going down due to poor yield. Therefore, if people like us are able to purchase inputs and chemicals to spray our farms, it would boost the production of cocoa in the country and the economy of the country would also be improved.
The proceeds from the sales of my cocoa would be used to pay the school fees of my nephews and also to purchase food for my mother. I would also use some to purchase more inputs for the next seasons activities. But this loan is needed to purchase Cocoa spraying machine

Loan Proposal

This loan will be used to purchase desktop computer at 103.85 dollars.. This will help the business to manage stock and sales so that proper records could be kept. This will make work easy for the sales person and also improve.
This will help reduce lost due to improper stock taking which costs the business about 38.94 dollars per stock.
