Esther Renovee Group's story
Madame Ernestine is a client of the microfinance institution Hekima and chairs the village group "Esther Renovee".
Aged 52, she is married and the mother of 3 children, who are all in school; her partner is a teacher.
She sells various products in her shop, she started this business 7 years ago with the start-up funds received from her husband. Later she involved the Hekima programme to support her business, during which she gradually evolved.
With this new loan, she will stock up on rice, Omo, flour, oil, pagnes, juice, which will strengthen her initial capital.
The challenge of her business is linked to the lack of customers and unpaid debts.
She would like her children to continue studying and for her to feed her family.
Finally, she would like to thank Hekima and its partners for the support provided to the business owners without access to traditional banking facilities.
