Denise Dahoue was born in 1976 in Adja au Mono. Denise has lived for 19 years in the Cadjèhoun à Cotonou neighborhood, economic capital of Bénin. She is married to André Noumon, a bike mechanic, Denise has five children in her care, of which four are her own children. All of the children attend school and are dependent on Denise and André. Denise never went to school, because she began at an early age to sell provisions (rice, corn, beans) from her home. Denise also sells drinks and frozen water. Denise buys the provisions in Adja au Mono and obtains the drinks from the Benin Brewery Corporation of Benin. Denise is a former client of ALIDé who has already benefited from three loans that she repaid well to ALIDé. In order to increase her working capital so she can better satisfy her clients and earn more profits, Denise requests a fourth loan from ALIDé.

DAHOUE Denise est née en 1976 à Adja au Mono. Denise réside depuis vingt neuf ans dans le quartier Cadjèhoun à Cotonou, capitale économique du Bénin. Mariée à NOUMON André un mécanicien moto, Denise a à sa charge cinq enfants, dont quatre sont ses propres enfants. Tous les enfants sont scolarisés et sont à la charge de Denise et de André. Denise n’a jamais été à l’école, c’est pourquoi elle s’est très tôt mise dans la vente de produits vivriers (riz, maïs, haricot) à son domicile. Denise vend également des boissons et de l’eau glacée. Denise achète les produits vivriers à Adja au Mono et s’approvisionne en boissons à la Société Béninoise de Brasserie du Bénin. Denise est une ancienne cliente de ALIDé qui a déjà bénéficié de trois crédits qu’elle a bien remboursés à ALIDé. Pour accroître son fonds de roulement afin de mieux satisfaire ses clients et obtenir plus d’économies, Denise sollicite un quatrième crédit auprès de ALIDé.
