Fama Thiam a remboursé son prêt avec succès. Elle a approvisionné son restaurant et a bien géré ses activités en améliorant ses services envers la clientèle. La demande est très forte surtout les jours de marché hebdomadaire. Elle est aidée par ses trois filles et deux femmes qu’elle a engagé. Fama fait face à ces charges familiales et a dans ses réalisations une maison de 3 pièces plus salon et pense à l’électrification de la maison. Merci aux prêteurs.
