MBABANE – At 22 year old, Eddie Bennet is owning a Broilers production after financially being empowered by the Youth Enterprise Revolving Fund (YERF).

Bennet started his business last year in June. He was loaned E50 000 to start the business.

His business based at Matsetsa in Lubombo is trading as Eddie’s Broilers.

On Saturday, (March 1, 2025) his business was visited by the YERF Board that comprised of Deputy Chairperson Thulile Phasha Zwane, Board members Tebesutfu Magagula, Banele Manyatsi, Mncedisi Nxumalo and Sandile Ndabezitha and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Mandla Nkambule.

The Board was impressed with the business and they encouraged other Youth to follow suit.
