Khadeza Akter and her husband Mohammad Saidur Rahman Bhuiyan, run a home based workshop of shoes in Uchitpur. They supply men’s and children’s shoes at wholesale shops in Dhaka. They are paying a weekly installment of Taka 300, for a loan of Taka 50000, half of which is already repaid. Khadeza says that they have prospered by the loans as there are five craftsmen working for them now, making it possible to deliver four to five dozens of shoes every day.
