In 2023, Grameen Crédit Agricole supported VisionFund Tanzania with a loan of 2 million euros. This microfinance institution improves the lives of low-income entrepreneurs by offering them sustainable and inclusive financial services. These loans play a vital role in empowering women entrepreneurs, who make up nearly 60% of their clientele. Thanks to this financing, they develop income-generating activities, improve their living conditions and invest in their children’s education, thus unlocking the economic and social potential of the local community.
Digitization is also an essential lever for VisionFund Tanzania. Thanks to digital tools, managers have simplified the lending process, made services more accessible and improved operational efficiency. This innovative approach has made life easier for entrepreneurs, particularly in rural areas, where 63% of the clientele is located.
Inspiring testimonials from women entrepreneurs illustrate the concrete impact of these loans: local job creation, increased family income and enhanced self-confidence. These results demonstrate that microfinance, combined with digitization, is a powerful tool for unlocking the economic potential of communities and sustainably improving quality of life.
