Hadja Nankya's journal
 
Entrepreneur: Hadjah Nankya‘s Group
Location: Kampala, Uganda

Hadja is not doing well in her business of selling bananas, She has used her loan to buy more bananas

The challenges she faces while doing her business is the ever increasing g prices of food and rent charges which has led to a reduction in the no of customers and also led to her bananas to rip. She also complains of little capital to run her business to her dreams.

Hadja opted to do this type of business because of the place she stays in which is very populated hence increasing her clientele

Her children go to school and are healthy because she is able to treat them incase of sickness. and also afford more meals in her home

She hopes to open up a shop and sell a variety of goods to her customers

She is very grateful to kiva for giving her their support.
