Madam Alice is a client of Hekima MFI and chairs the "Naomie SG Etoile du Ciel" village group. She is a widow; Elle est veuve, aged 49 and mother of 6 children, all of whom are in school.
She sells drinks in a drop-off/pick-up shop, a business she started 10 years ago with seed money received from her late husband. Subsequently, she involved the Hekima program to support her business, during which it gradually expanded.
With this new loan, she will purchase Bralima and Brasimba drinks, which will strengthen her initial capital. The challenge of her business is linked to unpaid debts.
She would like for her children to continue studying and feed her family. Finally, she would like to thank Hekima and its partners for the support provided to non-bankable business owners.
