A company with a vision

MIDA IS very pleased to partner with the First Union Financial Group in providing financial support to the micro enterprise sector, which has been contributing positively to the growth of our economy.

The relationship with First Union Financial Company Limited and the Micro Investment Development Agency Limited (MIDA) began in September 2010, when we accredited the company as one of our approved micro finance organisations (MFOs) and during the period of eight years, have accessed substantial loan funds for retailing to the microenterprise sector. This has assisted the company in expanding its network of branches from seven to 13 and the recent completion of a 10,000 square foot multi-purpose building which will also house the head office of First Union Financial Group Limited. Over the eight years of partnering with First Union, we have enjoyed a very good working relationship with key management personnel and can proudly attest to the fact that the microenterprise sector is for the better, because of First Union Financial Group Limited. The founder and chief executive officer has really demonstrated the true spirit of an entrepreneur, that is, always looking for new and innovative ways of serving the sector which is so dear to his heart.

Once again, we salute this achievement along with its recent expansion into various industries, both locally and internationally, and wish for the company, its directors, and the hard-working and dedicated staff, continued success in the years to come. First Union Financial Group Limited is indeed a company with a vision.
