Catherine's story
Catherine, a 47-year-old entrepreneur, has been running a cereals business for five years, selling maize, beans, and sorghum, with a monthly income of KES 10,000.
This is her third loan of KES 100,000 from VisionFund Kenya, which she plans to use to purchase sacks of dry maize, soya beans, and millet, taking advantage of the lower prices during the harvest season. Her strategic goal is to expand her business by acquiring these commodities at a more favorable rate, thereby boosting her profit margins.
Catherine is not only focused on business growth but also aspires to achieve long-term financial stability, enabling her to provide her children with quality education, which she sees as crucial for their future success. Through this loan, she aims to secure a better future for her family while strengthening her business.
