Herman's story

Herman is the father of 4 children, two of which are in school. He has been running a hardware shop in the market on the edge of town for two years. He is on his sixth loan cycle with YIKRI and is on schedule with his repayments.

He is requesting another loan so as to buy 7 wheelbarrows and 100 pieces of sheet metal. He expects to reinvest his profits in his business and save to look after his family well. He asks everyone to protect themselves from Covid-19.
