About Me

My name is Millicent ADukwe. I was born in a village call Yawsaekrom in the Brong Ahafo Region.I was born in 26th of July 1975.I am the last born of my parents.I have four siblings.
I come from the northern part of Ghana but my parents came to Brong Ahafo purposely to do farming. So they were farmer. The proceed from the sale of foodstuff was what my parents used in sponsoring our education My dad died when I was five years old and my mother had struggle in taking care of five children.things became difficult for my mum so my other four siblings became drop out from school. After my national service I secure a job at Capital Rural Bank ltd in the year 2006. I then got married to Mr Kwadwo Appiah who is a barber and a petty trader. God has blessed us with three children.

My Business

I started a soft drink shop last two years January 2015 to support my monthly income. I sell different kinds of soft drinks like minerals, multi fruits drinks, milo drink, voltic water, sachet water and other petty things like candies, bread and biscuits. Sales is very high, I sell about ten to twelve crates of malt and coca cola a days. The location of my business attract more customers. I operate the shop myself in the evening from 7:00 -10:00 pm. My business is located at capital estate near abesim, Sunyani- Ghana.

Loan Proposal

I have decided to purchase eight crates of soft drinks and ten packs of biscuits, five packs of bottled water, and twenty packs of sachet water. Candies will be added into it to increase sales and income. I expect that my income will increase by 45 percent by the next three months. This will help me pay my ward's school fee and also buy some of her textbooks. In fact, this will be very helpful to me.

    Kindly adjust the weekly instalments for me for the sales is very poor. I wish I could meet the instalments amount as scheduled earlier on but unfortunately am experiencing poor sale. Wish to do better next time.

    Poor sales and economic hardship has made difficult to meet the actual repayment amount. I'm hoping to meet the payment schedule next two weeks.

    Poor sales and economic hardship. I will make sure I meet next repayment schedule. Even though I don't like paying the loan in bit but the economic hardship has pushed me to change schedule.

    Poor sales and economic hardship. Hoping to do butter in the next coming weeks. Thank you.

    The reason for the change is due to poor sales and economic hardship. I will stick to instalments amount when sales improves.

    I have not been able to meet scheduled instalments due to poor sales and economic hardship. Please permit me to pay in bit. I will do my possible best to pay off the loan in due time even though it might delay. Sorry for the inconvenience I might have caused

    Poor sales and high cost of goods has limited the profits and thereby making payments difficult.

    I would like to plead with my lenders for not beaing able to follow the schedule amount and keeps on changing the schedule amount but it not my making. It is due to poor sales and poor economy we find ourselves nowadays. Please I will follow the schedule instalments when sales improve. Thank you.

    Sales has been very poor nowadays which has made payments very difficult for me. I am only praying that in the next two weeks I will be able to make good sales and improve on repayment.

    Sales nowadays slis very poor, economic hardship has reduced my daily sales dramatically making payment of my loan very difficult for me. Am only praying that sales increase so that I can pay back my loan as it is expected of me.

    Sales has been very slow of late, things are not moving as expected. I pray that sales increase in the next few weeks to boost my repayment. I hope things gets better.
