Sodéhoé Agbabou

Born in Lomé in 1955, Sodéhoé AGBABOU is married and the mother of five. She spends all her days assisting her unemployed husband in educating their children. She has been doing this by selling various goods and by making and selling Akassan (or Akpan) balls, which are steamed balls of fermented corn mush wrapped in leaves. By obtaining an initial loan, which was repaid in due course, she was able to start this business.

A very energetic and active woman, Ms. AGBABOU is requesting a loan of $550 to stock up on corn, the main ingredient in her product, in order to meet the continuously growing demands of her customers.

Née en 1955 à Lomé, Madame AGBABOU Sodéhoé est mariée et mère de cinq (05) enfants. Elle a passé toute sa vie à épauler son mari sans emploi dans l’éducation des enfants à travers son activité de vente de produits divers et de préparation et la vente de la boule d’Akassan (Akpan) à base de maïs. Avec son premier crédit qui a été bien soldé, elle a pu relancer son activité.

Très dynamique et active, elle sollicite un appui financier de $550 pour constituer un stock de maïs, matière première de base de son activité afin de répondre à la demande sans cesse croissante de sa clientèle.
