A loan helped a member to buy bananas and oranges with the aim of reselling them for a profit.


Djiguifa Group's story

Ramata is 36 years old, married, and the mother of 6 children, including three boys and three girls aged 6 to 15 years old. Three of the children are in school. She is the one in front of the group with the bananas and oranges in her hand in the photo.
Ramata is illiterate. Her income is based on trade. She makes her purchases and sales in cash in her commune and surrounding area. Her average monthly interest is estimated at 50,000 FCFA.
She has been running her business for more than 10 years to support her husband, a farmer, in covering the expenses of their children and those of the family.
She is applying for an RMCR-KIVA loan to increase her business in order to earn more profit after sales.
Her dream in the future is to have more income in order to improve the family's living environment and especially the education, health, and food of her children.
The change in price is the difficulty she often encounters.
