For 35 years, HANIFA BAI and her relatives have
run an embroidery workshop out of their home in Malir. The
detailed and delicate designs are sewn by hand onto material
that is stretched across a frame and the finished pieces are
bought from Hanifa by salesmen who supply various outlets and
designers across the city.
“Never in all these years did we even think we could get a loan”
says one of Hanifa’s seven brothers, “but Tameer gave us a loan
and now we working more and earning more. Tameer bank! Karak
bank!!” Three other members of Hanifa’s household also took a
loan from Tameer and by pooling their finances they have bought
large supplies of raw materials at a cheaper price than normal. |
