For the past nine years, Siddy Latabu has been trading in fish, supplying silverfish and smoked fish in Kitgum Main Market to sellers in Kitgum and neighbouring districts including Pader, Agago, and Lamwo. But it wasn’t until she discovered dfcu Bank’s GROW loan that her business truly grew to new heights.
GROW
The GROW Loan is designed specifically for women in business who are looking to expand and strengthen their enterprises. The initiative addresses the unique challenges faced by women entrepreneurs, offering them not just financial assistance but also the mentorship and business development training necessary for long-term success.
The GROW initiative builds upon dfcu’s legacy of supporting women entrepreneurs, an effort that dates back to its flagship Women in Business (WiB) program, which has empowered thousands of Ugandan women.
