Loan description:
Aged 50, Rachelle is a married mother with 8 children, who all attend school. For close to 30 years, Rachelle has principally made a living from the production of red oil (palm oil) and akassa. In order to better manage her production unit, she employs 8 people. After production, the produce is delivered to wholesalers at the markets of Mowodani and Ikpinlè. She sources her stock of palm nuts from the fields of the village of Adja-Ouèrè and her maize from the market at Mowodani. Rachelle is a loyal client of the microfinance organisation ACFB – she has always respected her commitments to them. She is currently seeking a loan for 600,000 West African francs so that she can expand her stocks of nuts maize. The ensuing profit will enable her to further participate in the meeting the school fees of her children.
Original loan request in french:
Elle a 50 ans, mariée et mère de 08 enfants qui sont tous élèves. Dame Rachelle exerce comme activité principale, depuis plus d’une trentaine d’année, la production de l’huile de palme ‘’huile rouge’’. A cela, Rachelle ajoute la préparation de l’akassa. Pour mieux gérer son unité de production, elle emploie 08 personnes qui sont à sa charge. Sa production est livrée en intégralité aux grossistes du marché de Mowodani et du marché d’Ikpinlè. Elle s’approvisionne en noix de palme dans les champs du village d’Adja-Ouèrè et en maïs sur le marché de Mowodani. Cliente fidèle de l’ACFB, elle a toujours respecté ses engagements vis-à-vis de l’institution. Ce prêt d’un montant de 600.000F CFA qu’elle demande lui servira d’une part à acheter des noix de noix pour sa production et d’autre part du maïs pour son commerce d’akassa. Le profit réalisé l’aiderait à mieux participer aux dépenses scolaires de ses enfants.
