Halima Nakawooya is a proud member of the Nyikira group and has a tailoring business in Namasuba. She has been in this business for five years now, making ladies' and children's clothes of all kinds for a fee. She buys the materials and people come in to book, buy so that their orders are made to their satisfaction. She needs a loan to help her buy more clothing materials, threads and scissors for her business, since the profits she gets help her to repay back her loans as well as to cater for her four children plus pay their school fees. She has a dream of one day owning more sewing machines to expand her business, as well as starting a tailoring school.

Entrepreneur: Nyikira Kikajjo Group
Location: Namasuba, Uganda

Halima Nakawooya was able to improve on her tailoring business by buying more clothing materials and other accessories for her business. She makes clothes and dresses of all kinds for her customers and she feels her heart will rest if she ever sets up a tailoring school and start training other girls and disadvantaged women and men to do the same. So far, the profits she gets out of her recapitalized business help to pay school fees for her children, buying them food and general upkeep. She is happy the she is a member of Nyikira group that unites good women.
