Herimampionona is a 29 year old woman. She is divorced and lives with her mother in a lively city. She has no children.
To earn money, she buys and sells aluminium. She buys recyclable aluminium from car parts, food wrappings and other items. She resells these products to the foundries who transform this material into kitchen utensils and decorative objects. She has been active with this for the past four years. She has always used her own money as capital. The profits are used to assure the needs of both her and her mother are met.
Herimampionona will start to expand her business in order to increase her income. She requires capital and for this reason, she has joined Vahatra. She will be able to buy more aluminium to resell and she will earn more if she has more capital. She looks after the reselling of the items herself.
She hopes to have the support for this initial loan. She will continue to expand her business.
Her priority is to improve their day-to-day life.
