Adding to basket
The three women of the group Yehowa Akwe all live in nuclear families, and they average 45 years of age and two children, all living in the Teshie-Accra, Ghana area. The women know one another through ties of community, kinship, marriage, and their revenue-generating businesses in the district. They have small-scale businesses involving rice, plantains, yams, cooking rice and stew, and a bakery.
With the goal of increasing their business capital, the group members decided to join the micro finance institution ID-Ghana and are now on their sixth loan cycle.
Grace is a major vendor of rice, plantains and yams in Teshie. She intends to use her loan to purchase rice, plantains and yams from the market to sell to customers.
With this loan, Grace hopes to make a good monthly profit that will be used for the children’s sundry needs and also for increasing her capital.
They will hold each other responsible for the repayment of the loan.
