Mobile Money and Phone Charging Business

Alice borrowed money in 2024 to start a stationery shop, with school supplies for local kids. Because this is a seasonal business, Alice decided to diversify and now she offers phone-charging for people in Kamuli town, where the electricity is spotty. She also offers “mobile money” where people can give her cash and she can send them funds that they can transact through their mobile phone service. Her paper-and-pencil shop has turned into a local hub where people come almost every day.
