My name is Oumar Keita and I was born in 1979 in Bobo-Dioulasso, Hauts-Bassins in Sourou Sanou Hospital. I have been married since 2012 and I am now the father of a child who is about eight years old. I went to school until CM2 (grade 5). My child is attending school and is currently in CE1 (grade 2). I am the manager of a bar called Showroom and I also own a kiosk where I sell a lot of drinks (beer, Coke, Fanta, Brakina, etc.) and food (rice, sandwiches, spaghetti...). I have had my kiosk for about eight months. It is managed by my wife so we can generate profits and add to our family finances. I would like to receive financial aid to increase my sales. Thank you.

My business is selling food. Food is prepared and sold (like sandwiches, rice, etc.) and drinks are purchased wholesale (Coke, Fanta, Sprite, Burkina beer, SOBBRA (a local beer), etc.) to stock the kiosk and sell to customers. This business is profitable because with the profit from the kiosk and my salary, at the end of the month I can pay for different family expenses such as food, health care, clothing, and more. I can make about 5,000 CFA Francs per day in sales and receive a profit of 2,000–2,500 CFA Francs. Thank you.

This enterprise is based on the preparation and sale of food, like sandwhiches, rice, etc. and on buying different drinks from wholesalers, like Coca-Cola, Fanta, Sprite, Bukina Beer SOBBRA, etc. to stock at the kiosk and sell again to clients. The first loan will help me a lot in provisioning my kiosk.
