My Business

I am a medicine center assistant by profession. I currently work with Camping pharmacy in Accra. I really enjoy this work because it makes me learn about lots of health conditions and the corresponding drugs given to solve such health problems. We have had cases of people coming to the pharmacy with common ailments like common cold, malaria, and the Some of the conditions need the services of a doctor so we refer them to a doctor before attending to them. I have also realized how people abuse some drugs by self medication. In such cases we give the necessary advice and them better still refer the person to a doctor for proper care before administering the drugs to the person. At the pharmacy I learn day by day with the daily different health related issues. I really enjoy doing this job.

Loan Proposal

I currently work at Camping pharmacy at Accra. I have also worked at a pharmacy called Destiny Life pharmacy. I am into the sale of cotton wools, methylated spirits, and gentian violets. I normally sell by distributing these items to some private hospitals and laboratories as well. The private laboratories have started demanding for latex gloves and strips for 'achutek' blood sugar apparatus. When ZIDISHA grants me this loan I will be able to satisfy my customers and also earn their trust. I need a loan of $180 more to buy these strips. The private laboratories are linked one way or the other so when one laboratory recommends you to the other, they would love to also buy from you because of the testimonies from the other clinics. When I get this loan, my customer base will increase, I will make more profits and not forgetting the most important; my clients will be very happy. Thank you
