About Me

My name is Gyamea Debora. I am the second born of my parents. I attended Mpatasie Presby Primary and Junior High School. After my Junior High School, I continued to the secondary level at Berekum Senior High School.

I sell cloth. I have been in this business for the past two years. The proceeds from this business was what I used to cater for myself in my senior high school level. I stated by borrowing cloth from a wholesaler. After selling the cloth, I send the money to the wholesaler for another cloth. I made a lot of profit from this business. For now, I no more borrow cloth from the wholesaler. I buy them for resale.This how I started my business an overcame hardship in life.

I live in a community where the people are kind,hardworking and hospitable.
The children in the community study hard in school. Most of them want to become nurses when they grow.

My Business

I am entrepreneur. I sell cloth for both males and females. I have been doing this business for the pass two years. The business is very lucrative. This because the demand for the cloth in my community is high. Everybody in the community needs cloth to wear for his or her daily activity in life.
My weekly expenditure is $300 and my revenue is $700.
About 40% of my profit is used for reinvestment. The remaining 60%, I spend part on school children in my community.

Loan Proposal

My brother has had admission into teachers training college. So if I receive the loan half of the loan will be use to pay my beother's school fees. The cost of my brother's admission fee is $300. The remaining amount will be use to invest into my business. I am going to purchase more cloth to stock my business. This will increase my stock to meet the growing demand of cloth. The demand of cloth from my business is growing month after month. The reason is prices of cloth I sell is moderate. I do expect a return of 30%.
