Ekua Hagar prepares a local soup popularly known in Ghana as ‘Don’t touch me’. She is a widow with two children and her income is not sufficient to meet the needs of the family. Business is doing well but she would like a loan to increase sales by producing more soup for her market. The additional money will allow her to purchase more ingredients.



Important Information About This Loan
Please note that Kiva considers loans to this Field Partner, CRAN, to be particularly HIGH RISK. This organization has had very serious delinquency problems brought about by problems with its credit methodology, local environmental shocks including a depletion of local fisheries in its core area of operation (Cape Coast and the Central Province), and insufficient follow up with late clients. Lenders to this business should be aware that there is an increased risk of not getting repaid on this loan due to the challenges facing the Field Partner.
