My name is Mansour Junior Sy, and I live in the Pikine area of Dakar with my family. After my secondary schooling, I obtained professional training, and now I am a businessman. I decided to go into business because I looked everywhere for a job with no luck, and since I want to succeed in life, I put aside my diplomas to run a business. With a little capital, I go to the market to buy cooking utensils and resell them. This trade is beginning to become interesting because many people are getting to know me. In addition to this business I am a cashier in a store.
My business is simple. I am a cashier in a store and the salary is not great. I therefore decided to save a little money from my earnings to open a small business. After six months, I was in business. I go to supermarkets where kitchen utensils are sold and buy them at wholesale to resell them at retail. In the beginning, I only sold to my family members, but little by little my neighbors started to come, and now I sell even outside my neighborhood. I have good customers and I offer them good products at acceptable prices, this is why I do not feel too much competition--my products suit my customers' taste. When I buy inventory and resell it all, I calculate my profit, I reinvest it in the business and go buy more inventory again. Right now my clientele is growing and I would like to satisfy everyone. This is why I need your loan, to diversify my inventory.
I have a very loyal customer base and I get to fill their needs. However, I need this loan to grow my business, offer my customers new items and keep their loyalty. I am fortunate to be well-known, which helps my business. Since my customers like quality products, I can always satisfy them. With these loans from Zidisha, I intend to go to the market, buy other items I do not presently carry and offer them to my customers. They often ask me for things I still do not have. I would like to keep them from going elsewhere. This is why I would like to diversify my business, and when I can have a bigger loan, try to open other areas to get new customers.
