Tupendane Sacco Limited has re-launched as Uni-County savings and credit co-operative society limited with a call for many to join the institution.
Speaking during the launch, Nakuru County government’s agriculture executive Dr Stanley Chepkwony urged county workers to join the Sacco to see their fortunes grow.
“The rebranding is the beginning of a new chapter. Uni-County Sacco joins other co-operatives and societies who have already rebranded to offer better services,” Chepkwony added.
Chepkwony called upon the Sacco board management to adopt new growth strategies such as individual and group lending, embracing new technology and other financial and banking innovations to reduce the traditional systems risk.
Uni-county Sacco chairman Jared Otieno requested the office of the governor to sensitise county employees to embrace Uni-County as a Sacco of choice.
“I urge all the county workers and business community across the county to remain loyal and be good ambassadors of the co-operative movement,” Chepkwony said.
Among those joining the Sacco are Nakuru County government employees, Nakuru Water and Sanitation Services Company (Nawassco) employees and others from corporate institutions and entrepreneurs.
The Sacco offers services such as banking, savings and loan products, among others.
