About Me

I was born and raised in Toulel Thialle. I am married and the mother of four children, six girls and two boys, and I'm of the Poular ethnicity. I come from a large family, nine brothers and six sisters. My father had two wives. I didn't attend school because my parents said that a girl's place is in the home. In the kitchen I helped my mother, and I also worked with livestock breeding in the countryside since it was women who did all the work. I went to Dakar to marry a cousin. I live 400 km from the capital. Our village is difficult to get to, it takes nearly two days on the road.

My Business

I am a merchant who sells milk and porridge. I have a table in front of me that I attend to from 6 pm to midnight because I have clients who come down very late and I have to wait for them. For the water I pay 3,000 CFA per month. I want the loan in order to buy a stock of wheat and sugar bags which would allow me to make more profits and thus save more. Clients seek my goods and I absolutely need capital to purchase goods in order to serve my clients.

Loan Proposal

I am asking for a loan so I can buy powdered milk to make cornmeal, porridge, and milk products. I am a merchant and I sell these foods to customers who want breakfast and dinner made from local ingredients. My profits are used to buy more ingredients.
