Success Story

A group of women, some severely affected by Ahmedabad infamous riots, were engaged in stray stitching work A group of women, some severely affected by Ahmedabad infamous riots, were engaged in stray stitching work or domestic help while others were looking for work. Those that stitched competed with each other to pick up the occasional walk-in order. One worked in a factory far away from home leaving her kids alone back home. But most of them either knew some stitching or could easily pick up some. However, most had no sewing machines, no market and acted as business rivals.

That was when they heard of SPRAT through the members of SEWA. SPRAT helped them form the Roshni AZMAT Self Help Group at their own place, viz, at Jivan Pol na Nake, Kalupur Panch Patti, Kalupur, Ahmedabad. A financial assistance of Rs 20,000 was offered on pilot basis to buy a couple of power sewing machines and the initial quantity of fabric and accessories besides connecting them with the semi-wholesale garment market.

Notwithstanding that some of them are illiterate the Group thrived swiftly, thanks to their entrepreneurship. Now that they were dealing in quantities, eliminating middleman, they were bagging swift orders, thus recycling money faster. As they repaid this money in due course they are now seeking larger assistance to expand their business. Competitors thus became friends and partners, overcoming petty mutual animosity, and have got other family members to offer a helping hand. Their grown-up daughters have also now joined them, thus expanding the group. This option now offers non-refundable, but entirely reinvestable, financial assistance besides networking with markets, managerial and administrative inputs and secretarial support of CARAVAN centres.
