I am Dickson Adu Fosu from Ghana. From childhood I had in mind of been an entrepreneur. I see today as a dream come true as I am now the director of nice village roofing system. Due to my vision I started to do some part time business during my secondary school time.
This made me to raise funds to even pay my school fees. This made my parents to stop paying my fees right at the senior secondary
school level.
After university I decided to establish my own business and after two years of failure I am now one of the best roofing roofing company in my region.
I deal in roofing sheets. That is the long span, IBR, tiles etc. Before the roofing is done, the measurement of the entire roof is taken in meters. The rate per meter is charged then the client pays 80% then after the roofing the 20% is added.
I can make about 4,000 Ghana cedis as profit of which some part is ploughed back into the business.
The business is three years old but I have realised tremendous improvement.
The loan will be used to purchase nails which will help in the roofing. The nails will help me to roof my clients building at a profit.
Ghana is faced with changes in prices of goods and services so if I am able to stock a lot of materials which includes the nails I am able to do businesses with the nails at a higher profit.
