About Me

Pomeyie David is my name . I come from Keta in the Volta Region in Ghana. But have stay in Koforidua from my infancy. I had my basic education at Trinity Presby Model in Koforidua, Then moved on to Ghana Senior High school also in Koforidua. Upon completing I futherd to Koforidua Technical University to read Purchasing and Supply.
I seek a lot of help from my mentor who motivates me, and to what ever goal I set, I press hard to accomplish.
At my leisure time, I like to read.

My Business

I am into the sale of provisions ( processed food stuffs , biscuits beverages etc) The goods are in demand because members of my community have a level of standard of living and have taste for such products.
I chose this kind of business because people always move long distances to buy such products and I saw the need to establish one at a vantage point to ease my neighbors from such stress .
Costing in the business include purchasing cost, transportation cost and overhead cost. And purchases from my customers are the main source of income.
I reinvest my profit to keep the business moving.

Loan Proposal

With this loan I am planning to make a metallic cage in which I will store my sachets of water to sell.
This will be beneficial to others because I will have the capacity to take in more water to serve the demand of my customers so to save them the time and energy to walk about 500 meters away from my shop to buy water.
I am expecting a profit increase of about 20 %.

    I will at this time wish to buy more a the goods I sell for a reason that demand has risen hence I have to go to the market about three times in a week to replenish stocks which ties up my profit. So I believe bulk purchase will help me save cost.
    This will make a difference because it will enhance customer satisfaction as well as cost of transportation. I forecast to have a profit margin of about ten percent.
    This increased earnings will be reinvested

    Thankfully I have added tubers of yam to my inventory as well as other produce like sweet pepper.
    These new purchases tends to satisfy my customers effective demands.
    The expansion has also helped increase my profit margin that I am now self reliant.
    Holidays are exciting to me in my vicinity for a reason people who don't go to work buy a lot on such days and weekends too.

    The previous loan earned me lees profit since some of my products are perishable and in my country, we are in the raining season so people go to town for bulk purchases. I therefore intend to reduce the amount I am applying for to be within the risk zone. Thank you.

    Am appreciative to the organization. I have received the loan rightly but a little problem is that I didn't get a mobile money notification from my network service provider until I logged in to realize the loan has been disbursed to me. I therefore plead with the team if there can be another source of notification suggesting via email. So that the money lends can be channeled to its purpose of collecting other than considering money in an account personal income. Thank you.
