His name is Dady and he is a 51-years-old Malian, who is married and father to six children, two of whom are at school. He is a trader and buys goods (shirts, "pagnes" - brightly-colored traditional African cloth - and pants) at the Grand Market in the capital. He resells them at the weekly market in his municipality and on other days, he sells while wandering around. Thanks to this business he manages to cover his family's outgoings (food, clothing, shoes, school fees and health care). He has been carrying out this clothes-selling activity of more than 15 years now.
In need of financial means he has turned to RMCR to get a loan to increase the quantity and quality of his goods so he can attract a large number of customers. His dream is to build a permanent-structure home for his children.
