Benkola Group's story
Hassana is the man in the photo who's holding the ram's horns. He is 34 years old, married, and his wife is a homemaker. He is the father of 3 children, 2 of whom attend school. Their ages range from 7 to 10 years old. Hassana did not attend school.
Hassana has been a loyal Benkola Group customer for a year. He has been practicing sheep fattening for over 10 years and sources his supplies from local markets. His estimated profit from a sale could yield between 35,000 to 50,000 CFA francs. Thanks to his profits, he manages to meet his family's needs, ranging from children's medical expenses, clothing, education, and even food. Hassana is currently in his second loan cycle and aspires to secure more funds in the future in order to provide for his children's well-being.
