My name is Irene Honu and I'm from Dzodze in the Volta Region of Ghana, West Africa. I am a SHS graduate of Jim Bourton Memorial SHS, Logba. I offered home economics with option in catering. After graduating from School, I told myself that I was going to do business on my own so started cooking rice and selling by the roadside since I offered catering in school. I am a mother of two children. I love cooking and I want to become the best chef in the future with the biggest restaurant in Ghana.
I am a cook and also runs my own food joint. I started cooking right after school and selling by the roadside. Now I have been able to acquire a land and I want to start a restaurant there. My love for cooking has brought me into this job and I'm ready to go the extra mile just to be the best as cooking is my hobby, my proffession and my passion. I am highly determined to be the best chef with the best restaurants in Ghana.
I want to use the loan to buy meat, tin tomatoes and raw tomotoes and use in preparation of stew for my waakye or rice business. The demands by the customers has compelled me to increase the quantity of food I cook now hence the need to increase the stew too.
In Ghana, those of us in the food retail industry are considered essential service providers so no matter the condition of the COVID-19, we are allowed to operate without any Problems and I do deliveries too at times so I can repay the loan from the sales I generate from selling the rice.
