Business Development Gateway Young Beneficiaries Harieth Kaduma in Mtwara, aged 24 years. Prior to joining BDG she had one old sewing machine which she worked with on a veranda in front of someone’s shop. She did not have many clients because she was not trusted and had no capital to buy materials. She participated in BDP and went through to stage three and won TZS 2. 4 million grant. With the grant she bought several manual and electrical sewing machines, 2 over-lock machines and embroidery machine. She is now renting better premises in a commercial area, employs 2 full time tailors and trains an average of 4 girls every 6 months. As a result she can now receive large orders and sufficient raw materials. 14
