Safidy is 39 years old, married, and father of three children. He lives with his family in a rural village where he trades paddy rice and raises pigs. He has been practicing these activities for several years. His wife works alongside him, and together, the couple helps each other to improve their income.
Safidy collaborates with Vahatra and has already benefited from several loans in the past. The last one was invested in strengthening his commerce activities. The profits generated allowed him to increase his capital, and he was able to repay his loan in full.
Currently, he wishes to expand his business and is seeking the help of lenders. He plans to buy several kilos of paddy rice to resell at the right time, as well as some local breed pigs and the necessary feed for them. Once the pigs are fattened, Safidy will sell them in the local market.
In the long term, he plans to build a house to provide a better living environment for his family.
