Welding tricycles and wheelchairs for the disabled

Entrepreneur

About Me

I live in a family of eight. We all get on perfectly well with each other and fight together for success! I work in a company created by an association of disabled people.

I like animals, and I have a project of raising animals, which necessitates funds.

So, I ask myself: "As I do not have a lot of money, why not start small?"

That's how, with only my salary, I bought two male and one female white sheep. Then, I started to renovate two warehouses, but the second one is not finished yet because of the lack of wherewithal.

My Business

I already have three purebred sheep, and I'm planning to extend the herd because there is never enough meat. This is just the beginning of my project of sheep breeding. In time, it will grow, evolve, and become more profitable. In Burkina Faso, the demand for meat from sheep undoubtedly will be high, especially during sheep festivals.

This particular breed of sheep is really nice to breed. They are pretty big, though, and so they are expensive. I would not be able to buy a sheep of this breed with $100; however, with that amount, I could fix the second warehouse to protect them from the rain.

Maybe I could get a field in my village to establish the farm I've always dreamed about.

I chose to become a shepherd because the demand is higher now than in the past, and it keeps growing. Moreover, after my retirement, I would be able to live from my herd and, if everything goes as I imagine, I could create new jobs to decrease the unemployment rate.

Loan Proposal

With this loan, I would pay for the raw materials for the manufacture of manual pedal tricycles and wheelchairs for people living with a handicap, whose orders already have begun. At this moment, I have an order for 40 tricycles, of which I would deliver half and wait for the payment of my invoice before producing the rest of the order to settle the customer's request, due to lack of financial means.

Normally, I would want to have considerable financial means for the entire order, to have the advantage of paying for the raw materials at a lower cost, and also gaining more time to tackle another order. In terms of welding, the more you produce in quantity, the more the cost of production decreases, and the more the profits increase!
