Cooperative Member Portrait: Meet Florence, A Vegetable Farmer from Kenya

Working with a local Savings and Credit Cooperative (SACCO) helped Florence when other credit sources were unavailable.

Florence started a group of small-scale farmers in 2013. She began with weak raw materials, producing small quantities of potatoes. After being linked to Siraji SACCO, Florence received the resources and training to expand her business and be more profitable.

“[With the help of Siraji SACCO] we grow more potatoes, we grow better potatoes, we make more money and that has meant a better life.
