Meet 30-year-old Maltida from Jui in Sierra Leone. She is married with two children between the ages of 9 years and 16 years. Maltida’s children are currently attending school. She contributes her income to help her husband to manage the household. In 2014, Maltida established her retail business. She began her business because she wants to improve the lives of her children. She works at the business 12 hours per day, 6 days per week. She says that the main challenges to her business are the cost of transportation and price inflation.
Maltida requires a loan in order to buy different types of cosmetic products such as creams, hairbrushes, and other accessories. She hopes that the extra income from this loan will allow her to buy the relevant items for her business purposes. It will also be helpful for her to earn maximum profitable income to fulfill the needs of her business and family. In the future, she plans to expand her business more. She thanks you for your support.
