About Me

Hello my name is Maimouna Bela, I am thirty and am polygamous. I have three children. My husband is in retail and so am I. I sell clothing and other food products from the Casamance from where I am from.

My Business

I am soliciting a loan to grow my business that I run in between Dakar and Zuinguinchur in the south. What I do is buy clothing materials here and bring them to the villages in the south. Then, I buy certain products such as Palm Oil and I bring them back here to the city to sell. Here there are not the natural products like in Casamence, in the south. With this loan I would like to buy more stock. With the profits I hope to buy a small room.

I have previously held three loans from SEM (Senegal Ecovillage Microfinance) Fund. The first was in June 2008 for the sum of 400,000 Francs CFA, the second was for 700,000, and the third was 140,000. All these loans were reimbursed, and that before their due date (which is next month, in May 2011).

Loan Proposal

With this loan I plan to go to Casamance. I will bring fabrics to sell there and come back with food products to sell here in the city. It is a win win situation.
