KOUKPO Denise was born in 1970 in Cotonou, the economic capital of Benin.  Married to DOVOEYAN Salako Michel, she is the mother of two children who are both in school.  She has been living for three years in the Agbodjèdo district in Cotonou with her husband and children.  The couple provides for the family jointly.

Denise sells a variety of goods (pasta, cookies, milk, toothpaste, body lotion, sardines, hair ointment, soaps, bicarbonate, etc.) out of her home.  She stocks up from Dantokpa, the international market of Benin.

She already has ten years of experience in this domain and has benefited from an ALIDé loan before, which she has repaid.  With the aim of expanding her business and growing her customer base, she's requesting a second loan from ALIDé.
