Adding to basket
This group was created in January 2011 and is made up of 12 women who live in the same district. They have worked together for a long time and get on well together. Their main activity is commerce. This is their first loan from the institution.
Mrs. Mary is the leader. She is 43 and she is standing on the far right with her hand raised. She is married with three children including a daughter of five, and they all go to school. Mary is very resourceful and manages a group of women.
Mrs, Mary runs a restaurant in the village market. She is successful and she has over 10 years of good experience in this business.
With this loan, she will buy a certain quantity of goods to stock (sacks of rice, cans of oil, potatoes, onions, and other condiments). Her business is doing well and her principal customers are the ladies who sell fish.
Her profits will enable her to buy sheep to increase her herd and a steer to fatten up and sell during the festive season.
