Dairy farmers and small-scale traders under the Githunguri Dairy and Community (GDC) Sacco are set to benefit from a Sh500 million credit facility funded by the World Bank.

The financing will enable members to access affordable mobile-based loans to purchase modern dairy equipment, upgrade cowsheds, buy animal feeds, and expand their income-generating activities.
