Book Beug Beug Group's story
Mbery is the president of the group "Book Beug Beug De Santhiaba Lebougui Deni Biram", which translates from the local language as "Have The Same Vision".
This loan is intended for all nine (9) members of the group. They are all traders.
MBERY is the woman standing in the middle of the photo, wearing a black hooded dress and holding a bowl of tomatoes.
She is 54 years old, married, and the mother of four children, all of whom are in school.
She has been in this business for over 26 years: she buys her produce at the large vegetable market in Notto Gouye Diama and sells it at the market in her locality, Deni Biram Ndao.
The difficulties she encounters are the high cost of goods and transportation expenses.
The loan from VisionFund allows her to buy more products, increase her stock of goods and make more profit to provide for her children.
In this group: Mbery, Ndiaye Gueye, Awa, Maimouna, Khoudia, Maty, Ndombour, Anta Dike, Adja Ndeye Aminata
