I am Ivy Appiah, the CEO of Tiwajo Industry Limited. I am a biochemist with 10 years experience in product formulations both in food and cosmetic development. I developed a natural cosmetic range called “paridox” and has continuously improved the product formulation since 2010.
I have a strong passion to build entrepreneurs especially women entrepreneurs through training for them to start and grow their own businesses. I have always believed that entrepreneurship is the key to national development and is linked to the better Ghana we all seek.
I know how to start small and grow because I am a living testimony to that hence i believe i can help women to re-write their stories from a small beginning.
Why you should listen
I have a practical story to share with the world so They can believe that you can actually start a business with just your passion and what you have.
I never borrowed money to start my business but Just made good use of what I had at that time. Since then it has taught me to move anyway with or without support given me strategies to fund the business with the help of my customers. I want to tell the world that difficult times creates more opportunities for entrepreneurs
Quote from Ivy
“Success begins in silence, with self motivation and hope beyond doubt but the end brings all good things at your doorstep. Therefore in your struggle for success never give up…”
