Herilalaina's story
Herilalaina is a 51-year-old father. He is married, and the couple has four dependent children. He lives on the outskirts of the city in a family home. He has been involved in pig farming and selling ready-to-wear clothing for about twenty years. His wife is a teacher. He is a partner of Vahatra. With his previous loan, he was able to strengthen his financial capital with the income he earned.
He now wishes to take another loan to improve the feeding of the pigs he already owns and to expand the goods he sells. He is therefore seeking support from lenders to buy rice bran, feed, and other necessary food for his livestock, as well as bales of ready-to-wear clothing to resell on the market. He will save his profits to begin finishing their own house in the near future.
