Did you say HOW?


At Owoafara, women businesses are important to us because we recognize the role of women in contributing to developing families and growing the economy.

In Nigeria alone, over 49% of the population are female and there is a rising number of women who are female bread winners, single parent and single income families. 26% of these women are in the service sector and are involved in varying trades which makes up about 25million woman in Nigeria alone.

We want to fuel the entrepreneurial spirit of the African woman.

As a female founded Company, we also understand how women relate with finance and we are especially committed to helping women who are majorly underserved get access to loans and business support to grow.

Our Women Trader Program

Most women traders fall in the under-served and under-banked segment of the SME economy because they are semi-illiterate. They are also not very technology savvy. However they are hard working women who are fuelling our informal economy by providing essential goods and services.

This program will bring access to finance closer to them working with the women leaders in the over 1000 major community markets in the country.

If you are a woman leader in a market location or offer complimentary products to women traders, you are welcome to sign up as an introducer to help women traders get access to working capital to grow their business.

Testimonials

“I applied for the loan from Rouzo through an Introducer and I enjoyed the services rendered by the Rouzo team as they work tirelessly 24/7 which I observed, finally I got the loan after visitation to their office & completing the necessary documentation. Although the facility provided has enabled us to purchase some medications for our pharmacy, more funds are required in the future to boost the business and we are certain that Rouzo will be there to cater to our financing needs.”

“I run a fishry and along the line, could not meet up with feeding them because they were too many. I didn't know what to do. running to the bank will take a long time for them to approve a loan and disburse. This will jeopardize my business. Fishes cannot stay a few days without some of them will die.Then I remembered Owoafara and gave them a call. In a few days, I have the money I applied for, just online to help feed my fishes. It was so quick and easy. If you think quick loans, think Rouzo Owoafara. ”
