TOSSOU K. Martine was born in 1949 in Dassa in Collines County. She is married to TOSSA Bernadin. Martine and Bernadin have five children who are legal adults and independent. The family lives in Agbodjèdo, a district of Cotonou, the economic capital of the Republic of Benin. Martine sells various goods (anti-mosquito products, steel sponges, soaps, matches, flashlight batteries, etc.), as well as charcoal. She sells her merchandise out of her home and also door-to-door.

She has already had three ALIDé loans that she has repaid. She used them to raise her business level. Today, she’s requesting a fourth ALIDé loan to be able to continue developing her business.
