About Me

My name is Gil Ofosu-Okyere Nana Yaw, I am a 31 year old male. I have been completed Senior Secondary/Technical School at (Pope John Secondary School - Accra) and couldn’t continue to further my education to higher level due to financial problem. I was living in the capital city of Ghana (Accra) and currently moved to the second capital called Kumasi in the Ashanti Region to commence business. I have three brothers and a sister. Am the second born of my parents. My home is located ten kilometers from the Central Business Center called Kejetia. But my business markets all over the areas of Kumasi

My Business

I deal with used shoes both ladies and gents. I have been in the work for about eight(8) years from 2005 till date. My uncle used to send them from Italy but he is not in the good health so he has stop sending them for me to sell them. So I decided to join some friends in the market to help them sell their own and after we closed then they give me a percentage on the shoes I will sell. I have done this for the past 2 years and I used to keep the percentage amount I get and now I am selling my own shoes so I want zidisha to help me to expand my business and when I get the money it will help me to buy more shoes and rent a shop.

Loan Proposal

This money will be divided into two, half part of the money will be deposited for the shop i wanted rent to sell my shoes at the Central market and the other part will also used to buy more shoes, to be added to the ones i already have so that i can get more customers since the shoes are used for fashion , the demand of it is very high but because i don't have enough money to purchase more shoes in the market i always have shortage of shoes. but i hope this money will help me to buy more and to have more customers for my shoes. thanks to Zidisha for helping me. and thanks be to any lender who will invest his/her money to my business to achieve my goals.
