Loan description:

Rita Koutse, 31, is married to an independent retailer, and has one small child who is not yet in school. Rita used to sell cereals and yams but started trading traditional African clothing in 1996, and has continued to do so. She buys the traditional garments in Ouagadougou, just over the border in Burkina Faso where they are made, then sells them at Nyékonakpoe, where she lives. Rita has requested her first loan of 400,000 West African francs from the microfinance institution WAGES, to be repaid in 12 monthly instalments, so that she can increase her stock and her profit. Looking ahead to the future, Rita is keen to ensure the prosperity of her business and her family’s well-being.
