For the first time in its 33-year history, Yetu DT Sacco, Meru County has hit the Sh1billion profit mark with an historic membership registration drive.
In recent times, the Sacco has recorded a surge in membership, overshadowing their peers, with at least over 20,000 new entrants being enlisted over the last one year, pushing the figures to 104,159 people.
