About Me

I am Mary Opoku a 30 year old lady, and I live in Kintampo . Professionally , I am an Physician Assistant . After completing secondary school i taught a private school for two years to before proceeding to Kintampo college of health sciences where I read community medicine.
Because of my passion for business I now sell clothings alongside my profession. Even at my child I use to sell sachet water after school to help my mother.
Upon all the hardship I went through I was determine archive my gold in life.

My Business

l am into the sale of both ladies and gent suits and khaki trousers.
The goods are useful and of hire demand because they are goods of necessity which human cannot do without. I sometimes give it on credit to my co-workers and other office workers therefore the mode of payment is very flexible.
I chose this type of business because it is most flexible for the clients to afford in terms of payment since they are easily located and can be paid by installment .
The typical cost of the goods are the purchasing cost and transportation cost. The business is very lucrative I must admit but just that I have no enough funds to invest and so should i get any support I believe I can even go to the main suppliers myself instead of buying from the distributors this will even enable me get more profit .

Loan Proposal

This loan will be used to buy smocks from the northern part of Ghana and resell to my customers at the southern part of the country and reverse the trade by buying 'kente' clothes from the southern part to resell at the northern part of the country
