Ms. Jolie is a client of Hekima IMF and chairs the village group “MUNGU NI MKUU/SG”. She is a 33 year-old married mother of 4 children, all of whom are in school. Her partner is a trader.
She sells various products in her store. She started this business 4 years ago with start-up funds received from her husband. Later she involved the Hekima program to support her business, which she gradually grew.
With this new loan, she will stock up on juices, OMO [a brand of laundry soap], sugar, flour, oil, rice, which will strengthen her initial capital. The challenge of her business is linked to the dollar rate. She would like her children to continue studying and to develop her business. Finally, she would like to thank Hekima and its partners for the support provided to illiquid business owners in this context of global crisis linked to Covid-19. The photo is only of the leader of the group due to Covid-19 social distancing measures.
