Le Banc Villageois was created on 2/9/2008. It is made up of valiant and hardworking women. Its members live in the same village and surrounding areas. They are active in small businesses.
Fatou is the representative of the group. She is a 45 year old married woman. She is the mother of 7 children, including 3 boys. She sells seafood. She is the woman on the right of the photo with one hand raised.
When she received her loan, she went with all of her money to buy seafood in the largest market on the Petite Côte to resell in her local market. She has been doing this business for over 10 years. She is an active woman and manages to sell her product well.
Her strength is that she agrees to give credit to small retailers and collect her money at the end of the month. She sells at the market in the mornings and in the evening she displays the goods at home.
She uses the profit to strengthen her savings in the Banc Villageois and the rest she uses to help her husband take care of their family.
In this group: Arame, Fatou, Fatoumata, Mame Awa, Coumba, Adama, Fatou, Tacko, Ndeye Yacine, Penda
