...I am sorry, but you do not qualify for a loan at this moment, but you can try next time when you have substantial security... Those are some of the words that you will often hear from a bank loan officer when trying to access a loan from your bank, which you have been an esteemed customer for over a period of time. It has become increasing difficult to access loans from a bank these days. But what if we told you that all that struggle and suffering to acquire a loan can end right now. What if we told you there is another way through a SACCO. Yes, saccos are becoming more popular nowadays especially with people who have had little success acquiring loans from a bank,employees on contract, new upcoming business people etc. SACCO is an acronym for Savings and Credit Co-operative Society.
