Another fruitful session of MM Module 5, the participants were excited to have this session as they're able to discuss the challenges facing their businesses and the opportunities that came with covid 19 level 5 and 4. Particularly Machere who lost all her goods from suppliers in Turkey due to covid. She lost her paid clothing and jewellery stock as no travelling were allowed and she could not afford to pay for the storage. She and other participants learned that having a business insurance is a priority to overcome such challenges. Opportunities were also raise that they started to look for other opportunities within the community to keep their Businesses. Though they lost assets through the whole process, but they were happy to share that covid has opened other opportunities that were not familiar with like sanitizers and masks.
