Sterling Bank has introduced a new financing product, the Sterling WASH Business Loan, designed to help businesses and service providers in the water and sanitation sector expand their impact.
Access to clean water and proper sanitation remains a major challenge for many Nigerians, affecting health, income, and overall quality of life. The loan, launched in partnership with Water.org and the Sterling One Foundation, targets companies and entrepreneurs delivering tangible solutions in communities where clean water and proper toilets are still limited.
Abubakar Suleiman, managing director of Sterling Bank, said the bank is committed to supporting entrepreneurs who are solving everyday challenges. According to him, the loan will enable WASH operators to expand their services and reach more families. “When we invest in people delivering essential services, we invest in the future of our communities,” he said.
