“The opening of the shop is just a drop in the ocean of what we are planning and help turn around our economy. It is our duty to work closely with local authorities and gear for development,” Shoko said.

“We aim to assist farmers get their monies on time, hence our partnering with the Grain Marketing Board, Cottco and tobacco merchants so that farmers remain productive while they access their money via mobile wherever they are,” Chari said.

“While One Fusion was a game changer, One Money will give the best as it offers lowest rates among other service providers including the traditional banking sector.”
