Bana Mbemba runs a stand with a variety of goods such as soaps, canned tomatoes, sugar, salt, sardines, corned beef, milk, tea, matches, etc. Bana started his business in 1995 with a capital of $4, buying peanuts and reselling them from house to house. With hard work, determination and good management, Bana has succeeded in growing his business. When he heard about Hope in April 2008, he decided to join one of the Hope’s groups. He has received three loans that he has successfully and completely paid back. Bana makes about $60 per week. He plans, with future loans, to purchase a corn mill. Bana sells in the central area of Kinshasa. He is 52 years old and single.

Nouvelles de Bana et son groupe
 
Entrepreneur: Nzambe Malamu Group
Location: Kinshasa, The Democratic Republic of the Congo

Bana Mbemba a un étalage d’articles divers constitué des savons, boites des tomates, sardines, corned beef, du sucre, du sel, etc… Le crédit reçu au mois de janvier dernier lui a permit d’acheter des cartons des savons, thé, biscuits et 1 sac de lait en vue d’accroitre le bénéfice. L’affaire de Bana a connu un peu de baisse à cause de la dépréciation monétaire vécue pendant ces trois dernier moi et, qui commence à se stabiliser progressivement. Cependant dans son groupe, une dame du nom de Julie Boyale a accouché d’une fillette. Bana est très reconnaissant de votre contribution financière a renforcé son activité.
