News Highlights:

  • QNET’s Commitment to Bridging Financial Disparities for Women
  • Financial Inclusion and Women’s Economic Empowerment

As gender disparities in financial access continue, QNET, a global wellness and lifestyle direct-selling company, is strengthening its efforts to close the gap through entrepreneurship, reports Digital TimesNG.

In celebration of International Women’s Day 2025, QNET is embracing this year’s theme, “Accelerate Action,” promoting direct selling as a powerful tool for women’s financial independence.

Recent findings from the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) 2024 report highlight the severity of financial exclusion among women.

Despite making up nearly half of the global population, 40% of women worldwide remain unbanked—with a 20% lower likelihood than men to hold bank accounts and 17% less access to formal credit lines.

This exclusion, affecting 1.1 billion women, is not just a socio-economic challenge but a barrier to sustainable growth.

For companies like QNET, the case for intervention is compelling. Direct selling—often dismissed in traditional financial inclusion discourse—presents an alternative pathway for women to generate income, build financial resilience, and scale entrepreneurial ventures.

Through its platform, QNET provides structured mentorship, training, and business resources designed to help women establish independent enterprises.

Biram Fall, Regional General Manager, QNET Sub-Saharan Africa, said, “As part of the United Nation’s Social Development Goals, achieving gender equality to empower all women and girls is a fundamental human right and a necessary foundation for a peaceful, prosperous and sustainable world.

“At QNET, we are committed to accelerating their success by equipping them with business skills, mentorship, and financial opportunities. By offering a flexible and low-barrier platform, we aim to enable women to become entrepreneurs and contribute meaningfully to their families and communities.”

QNET’s commitment to women’s empowerment is evident through various initiatives, such as its signature financial literacy programme, FinGreen, which was launched in Nigeria in 2022 to develop healthy financial habits through education and training in the most vulnerable communities, particularly for youth, women and those stepping into entrepreneurship in emerging economies.

The programme is important in achieving the UN SDGs and establishing a stable and healthy economy in developing nations.

Akeem Ajisafe, Managing Director of Transblue Nigeria Limited, QNET’s local partner in Nigeria, speaking on the special observance, said, “At QNET, we believe that true empowerment comes from providing women with the right opportunities to succeed.

“Through our various initiatives, we hope to highlight our commitment to equipping women with the skills and resources they need to achieve economic independence and long-term success – addressing gender disparity in Nigeria and across Africa.”

With a strong focus on financial inclusion and skills development, QNET continues to support women in building sustainable businesses, fostering independence, and driving economic growth.

As the world pushes for gender equality, QNET remains steadfast in its commitment to accelerating action and creating a more inclusive future where women thrive as leaders, innovators, and entrepreneurs.
