A safe haven for traders and entrepreneurs to pool resources, grow savings, and access affordable credit — governed by members, for members.
Many strands twisted together carry more weight than any one alone — the principle a SACCO is built on.
The core business of Junction Traders’ SACCO is to provide a safe haven for its members to pool their resources together in the form of savings and facilitate the advancement of affordable credit to members.
Our Savings and Loan Policy was officially adopted by the committee and signed by Chairman Joshua Mamboleo and Secretary Jane Njoki on 30th March 2026. This policy governs all lending and savings activities and is read in conjunction with Kenya’s Cooperative Societies legislation, the SACCO By-Laws, and all other applicable laws.
