Our Core Product

A Loan Built on
Trust, Not Collateral

Chester Investment offers Women Group Loans — designed for groups of 8 to 25 women in the same locality who own small businesses and know each other well. No individual collateral required. Your group's trust is your guarantee.

  • Group of 8 – 25 Women
    Members must be from the same area, aged 18–69, and know each other's home and work addresses.
  • Free Financial Training First
    Every group is educated on loan management, business growth, and group sustainability before receiving a single shilling.
  • Repeat Loans in 2–3 Days
    Your first loan takes 2 weeks. After that, returning clients get their repeat loans processed in just 2–3 days.

Simple Process

From Group to Capital
in 4 Key Stages

The full journey takes 2 weeks for first-time groups — and just 2–3 days when you come back for more.

Our Purpose

What Chester Investment
Is Here to Do

We don't just disburse loans. We are in the business of building women who build Uganda.

Financial Literacy Before Every Loan

We empower women to become great managers of their businesses by providing free financial training before any loan is offered. Knowledge is the first investment.

Train, Monitor & Supervise Every Client

We don't disappear after disbursement. We train, monitor, and walk alongside every client — not to build a surviving business, but a thriving one.

Stronger Communities Through Networking

Chester promotes meaningful connections among women entrepreneurs — building networks of trust, trade, and mutual growth within our communities.

Every Loan = A Step in Business Growth

We ensure that each loan issued is directly tied to a real, measurable step forward in a woman's business — not just a patch on a problem.

Every Woman Deserves to Thrive

Our mission is to give every woman — regardless of her starting point — a genuine opportunity to grow and thrive in Uganda's economy.
