About Me

I am from the upper West Region of Ghana. I was born on the 9th June, 1963. I am married to Mr. Felix Kondayire. I have 5 children made up of 4 girls and a boy. Three of my daughters are still in school. My husband is the breadwinner of the family, both the nuclear and the extended family. It is really a difficult task for him. His salary is mostly used to cater for our children's needs both in school and home, family up keep as well as his extended family up keep. I applied for a loan to aid in my sowing business expand but the interest is not favoring me in my business and the mode of payment is not favorable and profit is used to pay for the loan.

My Business

I am a dress maker and i also want to do tie and die clothing. I sow dress dresses for the young and the older ones. I also want to buy a new sowing machine to enhance my business. I also want to start selling pieces of cloths.
I want to use the profit i get to plough back into the business and also help my husband to pay our children's school fees.

Loan Proposal

When this loan is approved, i will use it to stock my shop with cloths to be used to sow for sale. I will also buy materials to sowing face mask for sale.
I will also like to service my sowing machine to help me with my sowing.
I will also use it buy food stock for the family during this Covid-19.
This loan will help me in my business and also my family during this difficulty time of Covid-19

Income Source

Since i am dressmaker, i have decided to sow face mask which is in high demand in my town and which is compulsory in my town. This will will increase my profit. My husband will also help me pay back since he is a salary worker.

Loan was originally scheduled to take two months and regular payments completed the loan in a little over three months. Thank you again and continued best wishes with your business.

Loan was originally scheduled to take two months. After some reduced and missed payments during the rainy season, the loan was fully paid about nine months after being disbursed. Thank you for honouring your commitment to your lenders.
