Gul Hassan was a budding entrepreneur but lack of investment and exposure hindered his growth. He was a self- taught entrepreneur and once he had access to finance for his livestock business, his growth trajectory followed a steep upward trend. In 2015, he availed his first loan from Khushhali Microfinance Bank. At the time, he only had 5 goats and 2 cows. He utilized the loan to buy a small calf of a superior breed of Bagh-Nari. The trade proved to be very profitable. Gradually, he invested wisely in his livestock and improved his business. Today, his livestock has increased to cattle to 20 goats and 6 cows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But, the profit margins in local market were extremely low and an average goat\/ sheep was sold at a meager profit of PKR 400-500. He had a small number of animals so transportation cost to larger cities was not affordable. He proposed to other small livestock owners to rent a truck together and share the cost. Together, they took their animals to Karachi & were able to earn almost double profits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
