Success Stories

Bringing Dreams to Life

Yasir Sheikh, a resident of Sheikh Muhalla in Shikarpur, Sindh, always dreamed of running his own business. He began with a small cart selling snacks on the street and gradually expanded to owning a grocery store. As his family grew, Yasir’s desire to provide a quality education for his children intensified. He enrolled them in good private schools, but soon found himself struggling to manage the school fees alongside daily expenses. Faced with the difficult choice between feeding his family and paying for education, Yasir felt overwhelmed and worried. In search of a solution, Yasir turned to U Bank for financial support. The bank's staff guided him through the loan options, and he quickly secured the necessary funds with Barhta Karobar Plus Loan. Within a year, Yasir not only expanded his grocery business but also successfully repaid the loan. Today, his store offers a wider variety of products, his income has increased, and his children are receiving the education he always dreamed of providing. Yasir’s story is a testament to how U Bank's microfinance services can empower small businesses to improve lives and livelihoods in Pakistan.
