BSS, Dhaka :
Now a successful small entrepreneur, Popy of Ekartara village in Naogaon district had to face extreme economic hardship in the past. Pintu, her day labourer husband, was the sole breadwinner in the family. At that time, Popy’s family had to struggle even to manage their two meals daily.
This poor family has been able to change its lot. It is now economically solvent. This happened after Popy became a member of the Ekartara Village Development Cooperatives. Initially, she took loan from the Ekti Bari Ekti Khamar (EBEK) Project and started a cattle fattening programme, which eventually turned into a fortune-changing business for her.
Popy’s family started the cattle fattening programme with only one calf and after rearing the calf, they sold it for Taka 50,000.
As the cattle fattening programme proved to be a profitable venture for them, Popy was encouraged to take more loan from the Ekti Bari Ekti Khamar programme to expand her business.
