Buying water pump machine for my farm

Entrepreneur

About Me

My name is Alfred Acheampong. I am the third-born in my family. My mother is a small-scale farmer, while my father is a taxi driver. I went to R/C Boys' Primary School, and then proceeded to Berekum Secondary School, where I completed my secondary-school education. My father, having retired, cannot afford to pay my college fees, and since I cannot find a job, I have decided to do agriculture to save for my college education. Things look tough but manageable. Currently, I have one (1) acre of land with healthy tomatoes. I am looking forward to lucrative revenues this second season. I am social and outgoing, so I like meeting new people and making new friends.

My Business

I started my agricultural business in September 2014, to be able to save for my college education. As mentioned above, I currently have one (1) acre of land with healthy tomatoes, and I am looking forward to lucrative revenues this second season. I also have a second business, a photo-printing business, which I started because of the availability of customers who need photo-printing. My biggest challenge has been getting capital to expand the business. At times, my customers are forced to wait before they can get the services I want to provide to them. In the beginning, I had no camera and had to rent one from friends, but then with the help of Zidisha, I was able to purchase a video camera of my own. I also am knowledgeable in I.T. and this is another reason I chose to start the second business, which puts some of that knowledge to use. I now see myself as an entrepreneur because of these businesses, which is something I have always dreamed of becoming one day. My biggest need right now is to purchase a photo-printer and I am keeping the faith that Zidisha lenders will help me out. A photo-printer would help me to serve my customers much more easily, enabling printing out photos immediately after taking pictures. The printer would really help me to increase my profits.
