After learning vital money management and enterprise skills, Juliet and the Kigandelo Womens Association decided to set up their own business.
"Our income has increased so much, and this is down to one thing - value addition!" - Juliet
By roasting and grounding soya beans, they realised they could earn much more money than simply selling the beans as they are.
"Soya Kawa, a drink made from roasted ground soya beans, is the best value! We get 2,000 Ugandan Shillings for a small cup. Our Soya Kawa is so popular, we make it to order. Even schools order from us." - Juliet
