My name is Godfred Takyi. Am 23 years old boy and dark in complexion. I am 1.6 feet tall. I am single. I started my childhood education at the age of 3 years at Voice Of Deliverance school (Berekum). A young boy who was interested in Mathematics and Business started selling pens, exercise books and pencils at School at age of 8 years using my little pocket money. I started selling recharge cards after completing my Junior High School, even-though it was difficult combining school and little trade. My step-father who saw me as a little boy interested in marketing got me a kiosk. I sold soft drinks, biscuit etc (provisions) up till date. I live in a place where most of the people are very friendly and respect each others views and the environment is conducive for most businesses. I like reading a lot and playing games.
After years of hawking i was able to secure a kiosk from my step-father in my community to continue my business which i have operated for a year now. My dream is to operate a Super Market but as at now am running a provision store (kiosk) selling (soft drinks, bottle water and biscuit) in a small quantity. A lot of the customers always ask for other goods that i do not have although the business usually runs fast but the profit earned are used to purchase the same goods because it is in lesser amount. The loan will be used to purchase different types of goods and the other goods i do not have in a larger quantity. (upgrading)
I will use the loan to buy soft drinks such as 2 crates of coke, fanta, sprite, fanta lemon, malt each for 15 dollars, 5 boxes of bottled water each for 5 dollars, 3 boxes of wheat drink each for 10 dollars etc.
This will help increase my earnings.
I am hoping my profit will increase by 7%.
