Loan description:
Kanissou is a young retailer of 27 years of age. His wife is a housewife and they do not yet have any children. They live together in the neighbourhood of Kossicopé in Atakpamé. In order to make a living, Kanissou is a retailer in general food produce. He runs his business from his shop, situated in a neighbourhood on the periphery of the city. Here, he sells a diverse range of food produce and household items. Amongst other items, this includes pasta, rice, egg dishes, biscuits, as well as bottles of drinks and milk. Kanissou started up his own shop after spending several years as a tailor. However, as competition toughened up in the sector and orders became scarce, he dreamt of changing profession. This dream became realised in the course of the past year. Kanissou is now seeking financial support from the lenders at Lendwithcare to help him build upon his business. The loan for 300,000 West African francs that he has demanded will be used to expand his stock through the purchase of boxes of pasta, 50kg sacks of rice and 25 litre cans of oil. He plans to repay this loan in twelve instalments.
