Background
Elizabeth Mikanyu - Team leader
‘My name is Elizabeth Mikanyu, I work as a team leader in the green house. Everyday I start at 6am. I check what the people in the night have done, I check the depth of the layer of coffee, if the turning is done well, I check everything . I work here for two years now, from the beginning. I like interacting with my team mates, they are good people, I do not have problems with anyone.’
‘The company is good for the people in this village. It has helped us in getting jobs, we can buy food and pay for school fees.’
‘Before I got this job, I worked as a waitress in a hotel in Kasese. I prefer this job much more, I get paid more than in the hotel, where I got paid 50,000 a month. Here I get 10,000 a day, so around 220,000 a month.’
‘I have two children, one is in primary and the other is going to school next year. I stay with my parents, after I got divorced 2 years ago. I support my parents, my parents are very happy I contribute. My dream is to buy land for my children and to build a house.
‘I wish my daughter and my son one day will work at this factory as well.’
