Brigitte
A loan of $1,275 helps to buy tanks of gas to exchange and refill, and to save for the opening of another gas shop.
Brigitte's story
Brigitte is the mother of 4 children, 3 of whom are in school. She opened a shop for gas tank exchanges in a market on the outskirts of the capital that she has run for 10 years. She is on her 6th loan with Lending Partner YIKRI and has consistently repaid her loans.
She is requesting a new loan to buy additional tanks for refilling and exchanging to satisfy her customer demand. With her profits, she will reinvest in her business and save money so she can open another outlet to sell gas.
