Rehema is a client of the IMF Hekima and presides over the "groupe villageoise" « UKWELI YETU ». She is married, 36 years old and the mother of three children, all of whom are in school. Her partner is a plumber. She sells various products in her hardware store. She started this business 10 years ago with start up funds received from her family. Later, she joined the Hekima program to support her business, over the course of which she gradually evolved.
With this new loan, she is going to stock up with 10 bags of cement and cables, which will build up her working capital. The challenge in her business is tied to the lack of customers during rainy periods.
She would like for her children to continue to study and to continue to develop her business. Finally, she wishes to thank Hekima and its partners for the support given to business owners unable to use banks.
