..to Atsou Maboudou...Born on March 1, 1977 in Lomé, Mr. Atsou Maboudou married Miss Hétchéli Lawson who is a dressmaker. His primary business is raising laying hens in Agoè. He began this business in 2002, but with many difficulties related to building an enclosure for his poultry. With a first loan of US$ 1200, which he faithfully repaid, he was able to complete the construction of the enclosure and purchase 50 chicks. Once the chicks mature they each produce an egg a day. Mr. Atsou Maboudou went on to sell these eggs in trays of thirty eggs each.

This loan in the amount of US$1200 which he is presently requesting will allow him to buy 350 chicks which will eventually replace his former layers. In this fashion, he will be able to maintain a constant supply of eggs for his customers.
