About Me

My name is Robert. I was born in Koudougou, the 3rd largest city in Burkina Faso. I have a wife and 2 children. I had a difficult childhood because I was one of 8 children that my father had with our mother. Due to the poverty in which our father lived, we did not have the luck to go to school because we didn't have the means to do so. So I decided to get into the active life of my youth doing all that I could do. With what I earned I could support my parents and my brothers until the day I set myself a goal by setting up a fish. With this company I have been able to move out and can also look after my family . Here's the story of my life.

My Business

I had had the idea of leaving to set up a public secretariat, but I noticed that the area where I live is very far from a market and the inhabitants could not easily get fish because there was no point of sale of fish . It was then that I decided to change things by opening a fish store to satisfy locals and also make this project my main activity. First to open this fish store, I sold my cattle in order to have a base [amount of money] to start from. I built a house from 20 pieces of sheet metal and bought a freezer. This loan will further boost the expansion of my business; it also permits me to take care of my family and also pay the salaries of my staff.

Loan Proposal

When the loan is received, I will buy two cartons of fresh fish that each cost 20 dollars x2 = 40 dollars. Each carton weighs 20 kg .On each card, the fish is sold by the kilogram, each of which costs 2 dollars. So I can make a profit of 20 dollars every 2 days. In one month, I will have a profit of 600 dollars. With the benefit I can reimburse my loan, care form my family, pay the schooling of my children, pay invoices and my employees and increase the number of cartons [I buy].

About Me

je m'appelle Robert. Je suis ne a Koudougou la 3eme ville du Burkina Faso. J'ai une femme et 2 enfants. J'ai eu une enfance difficile car nous sommes 8 enfants que mon pere a eu avec notre mere.
Vu la pauvrete que vivait notre pere, nous avons pas eu la grace d'aller a l'ecole a cause de manque de moyen. Alors j'ai decide de me lancer dans la vie active des mon plus jeune age en faisant tout ce que ma trouvait a faire. Avec ce que je gagnais j'arrivais a soutenir mes parents et mes freres jusqu'au jour ou je me suis fixe un objectif en mettant en place une poissonnerie car. Avec cette entreprise je peux m' en sortir et aussi m'occuper de ma famille.
Voici l'histoire de ma vie.

My Business

Au depart j'avait al'idee de mettre en place un secretariat public, mais constate que la zone ou j'habite est tres loin du marche et les habitant s'approvissionnaient difficilement du poisson car il n'y avait pas un lieu de vente de poisson . C'est alors que j'ai change de projet en ouvrant une poissonnerie pour sastisfaire les habitants et aussi faire de ce projet mon activite principal. Tout d'abord pour ouvrir cette poissonnerie, j'ai vendu mes betails afin d'avoir un fond pour commencer. j'ai construit une maisonnette de 20 toles et j'ai aussi acheter un congelateur. Avec ce pret cela va encore booster mon entreprise en l'aggradissant, cela me permetra aussi de m'occuper de ma famille et aussi payer le salaire de mon personnel.

Loan Proposal

Lorsque le pret sera recu, j acheterai 2 cartons de poissons frais qui l unite coute 20dollards x2=40 dollards.Chaque cartons pese 20 kilogramme.
Sur chaque carton, le poisson est vendu par kilogramme et le kilogramme coute 2 dollards. Donc sur chaque cartons, je peux faire un benefice de 20 dollards chaque 2 jours.Dans le moi, j ai un benefice de 600 dollard. Avec le benefice, je pourrai remboursser mon pret, s occuper de ma famille, payer la scolarite des enfants; les factures et mes employes et auusi augmenter le nombre de cartons.
