About Me

I buy and sell farm produce directly to consumers so I need some capital for the purchase of the produce from farmers. Again I am a young graduate farmer who lost heavily from farming in 2014-2015 through bad weather that was experienced and wish to raise another capital through buying and selling of farm produce directly from farmers.

My Business

Buying of farm produce directly from farmers and selling it to the local markets between nsawam and accra respectively. Again I choose this kind of goods for the reason that they are edible and they move faster in-terms of sales daily. Part of the profit is used to support my children's fee payment and reinvestment into the business and my monthly income i receive.

Loan Proposal

I will use the loan to buy cassava and plantain direct from farmers for resale to local markets and chop bars,as well as enlarge my customer base by engaging more cassava farmers in order to get regular supply

    Advise to young graduates, let go till the lands that we have available so we can produce much food for our self's and those of our brothers and sisters who are hungry out there.for this is the only proper and peaceful work we were instructed buy scripture to do.
