About Us

Walinzi Sacco was registered in 2008 but started operating towards the end of 2009 with the first savings having been donated by the then, Westland member of parliament Fred Gumo. The Sacco was started by few people who were employees of the mother Company, KK security. Today the Sacco has grown with an asset base of over 27M and a membership of over 500. Our Loan book stands at 24M. We have achieved all this due to the support received from our members and other stakeholders at large. Our Sacco serves staff of the private security firms and other firms which offer internal utility service in factories and offices.
