About Me
I am a 33year gentleman born to Mr. and Mrs. Boron at Jirapa in the U/W Reg. of Ghana.
I had both primary and J. H. S education in Jirapa then proceeding to St Ignacious of Layola SHS at Lassie near Wa, the U/W Region, where I obtained SHS education.
I had to also teach some preparatory schools with a friend, Osman at Techiman to squire financial ability for further studies.
I have now gained employment by the government of Ghana as an environmental health officer, after my training at college of health and environmental science at Tamale in the northern region. By God's grace now I receive monthly salary from the government of Ghana in addition to business.
My Business
While awaiting postings, I took the opportunity to train myself in bread baking.
With the help of Zidisha loan, I will bake and sell tea bread in large quantities, thus supplying them to tea and porridge sellers. As my business expands, I have employed four young people who are willing dedicated to work for daily living.
My projections are to make and sell at least 2000 loaves of sweet bread per week with average price of 5GHS.
By these projections I am setting to make a profit of between 20-25% of the principal invested every week.
I took interest in baking because there was no baker within the community where I live.
Loan Proposal
I am much grateful to lenders and staff of the ZIDISHA team for the support I received in my previous loan. That has helped me established a shop for baking business.
Although the shop is not fully furnished, I hope with the acquisition of this loan I will complete the project and make it fully operational.
With this loan I will buy two additional ovens, paint the shop and connect electricity supply to it.
