A private entrepreneur from the city of Shymkent who purchased a new energy-efficient refrigerator for her canteen
Dildora Rustemova is an entrepreneur from the city of Shymkent who purchased a new energy-efficient refrigerator for her canteen. For more than a decade, she has been feeding visitors of the auto parts market in her canteen. Her first loan provided by the Microfinance organization (MFO) “KMF” a year ago was spent for the purchase of products for the canteen business. For several months, Dildora has been planning to replace the refrigerator and was looking for an opportunity to do this, since there was not enough money. Dildora heard from a loan expert of the MFO “KMF” about the possibility of receiving compensation (cashback) in the amount of 10% under the Green Economy Financing Facility (GEFF) programme from the EBRD. So, Dildora decided to take advantage of this opportunity and purchased a refrigerator from the Turkish producer. She chose energy-efficiency class of this refrigerator A +++ from Green technology Selector. Under the terms of the program, Dildora also received an incentive in the amount of 10% of the refrigerator cost.
“I am very grateful to the MFO “KMF” for such an opportunity to upgrade the refrigerator to a modern one, which is not only energy-saving, but also very convenient and ergonomic”, says Dildora,
