My name is Akosua Mansah. I am a Ghanaian. I was raised among all boys except my mom. I thus had a little formal education but not much. I at least had one that allows me to read and write. I basically did not continue my education due to financial difficulties on the side of my parents.
But it was my choice that I became a trader since I am naturally good at that. I started selling sachet water on the high streets of Bandah and later graduated to selling it on a retail basis. Bandah Nkwantah is a very busy place with diversity of people due to the commercial activities.
I sell or deal in sachet water but on a large scale. I buy about a hundred bags of sachet water with a hundred dollars. After sales, I will make 50% to 70% percent profit on the amount of money invested. I invest back into my business and live also on a percentage of it. I challenge myself every day with my business bearing in mind that hard work is what will produce the needed profits and sales. So I work from dawn to dusk.
if my loan is funded as i am hopping , i will use the entire to buy many bags of sachet water for sale . a $100 can get me about 80 to 100 bags of sachet water. and then after the sale of these bags, i will make more than $50 as profit which will allow me to repay my loan on time and the rest will go back into my business . this loan will help me grow my water business and also make drinking water readily available to all those in need of clean water in my community.
