Student company John Wesley Inc. from Jamasi Methodist Junior High School in Ghana was formed about 4 years ago and last year the original group of members of the school company graduated. This year a new group of students (see photo above) are continuing their partnership with Young Entrepreneurs Leading Luella of Luella High School in Georgia, USA. Achievers international originally partnered the two schools back in 2010.

Last year, the original students of John Wesley Inc. donated their trading profits worth around $200 back to their school which then used the funds to buy resources such as notebooks; an artifical skeleton for their science department; writing chalk; and tables and chairs for their staff common room.

John Wesley Inc. trades products made from Kente cloth, including bow-ties and necklaces (pictured below), both locally and internationally through partnerships with schools such as Luella High School in the US.

The new group of John Wesley Inc. members have decided to use their trading profits this year to purchase five used computers which they anticipate will cost $500.00 before they leave school at the end of the year. Let's all hope that they reach their target!

If any school wishes to trade for these authentic Ghanaian Kente products please contact us and we will put you in touch with John Wesley Inc.
