Loan description:
Aged 41. Ama is married and lives in Kpassakopé, one of the main suburbs in Atakpamé. Her husband drives vehicles for a living. Previously employed at a stall selling yams, Ama realised her dreams in 1995 by opening her own stall selling yams. With two employees, she managed to sell all of her stocks without difficulty on the yam market in Anié. Ama has only just discovered the world of microfinance and is seeking her first loan for 1,000 West African francs, which she plans to repay in 12 months. She wants to expand her yam stocks by a considerable amount; this will convey many benefits and will help her to save for her own storage space. Ama hopes that thanks to this financial support she will be able to help her husband with their efforts to create a more prosperous family and in particular a better living space.
