Sarah Forson

Thank you for your loan. It has been disbursed to Sarah Forson by Sinapi Aba Trust (SAT) in Ghana. We are excited to watch this business grow. Over the 5 months of this loan, Sinapi Aba Trust (SAT) will be collecting repayments from this entrepreneur and posting progress updates on the Kiva website.

Sarah is making progress in her business. She says she has achieved remarkable progress since the loan was introduced into her business. With her recent loan, she was able to purchase raw materials for her maize porridge. She was glad that the loan she received from Kiva has boosted up her working capital, affording her the opportunity to make bulk purchase maize and other ingredients in bulk per trip. Being able to buy in bulk is very advantageous. It means fewer trips to fill the demand, and it is a hedge against the rapidly rising prices. She now makes profit margin between 30-40 cedis per week which is almost twice her previous profits. After receiving her second loan cycle with SAT from Kiva lenders, Sarah says she is gradually scaling up her business profit which is making her life quite easy.

Part of her recent profits from her loan went to support her children who are still in school for their school fees and books. She has also been very supportive to her household feeding and payment of bills, with the remainder reinvested in her business.
