We leverage mobile to provide credit and to distribute tailored financial literacy content to women and adolescent girls who own micro-enterprises in Africa. Our customers are members of locally registered groups of between 10-25 members based on their business type (mostly common business type in close proximity). The loan products are issued to individuals, but membership and continued participation in the registered groups is a prerequisite. 'Cherehani' is the Swahili name for sewing machine.
