Marie Gomis a acheté un congélateur et bien mené sa vente d’huile de palme, citron, crème et jus. Son remboursement s’est fait comme convenu. L’achat du congélateur a permis de renforcer son activité, d’avoir plus de revenus pour aider en nourriture ses enfants qui sont des étudiants à Dakar. Elle est à la recherche de quelqu’un qui va l’aider à vendre.
