Asha is married and has two children. She makes and sells pillows. She obtains sponge materials from mattress-making industries and prepares pillow cases herself. Her pillows are so good that one cannot tell that they are hand made. Asha has been in this business for three years now.


She recently received an order from a nearby region of Morogoro after sending a sample of twenty pillows. What she can produce is only ten percent of what is needed. A loan of USD550 will help her meet the demand.
