Yaa is 32 years old. She is married with four children, and currently, all her children are in school. Yaa enjoys sales, the business through which she makes money to support her family. She works very hard with the passion of providing brighter future opportunities for her children. She is a petty trader who has been selling bananas and local salt for ten years now.



Yaa buys bananas from villages and retails them to her customers at a profit. With the loan, she wants to inject more capital into her business to buy stock in bulk.



Being able to buy in bulk is advantageous because it is a hedge against price hikes and also helps avoid frequent travel to fill demand. She hopes to use part of her profit to finance the education of her children.
