Rosa Candida
A loan of $1,500 helps to buy large pots and corn in bulk as raw materials for the making of tamales.
Rosa Candida's story
Rosa is requesting another loan because she needs working capital to continue with her business and because she is satisfied with the good results obtained with the previous loan. She will invest in the purchase of large pots and corn in bulk to supply herself with raw materials for the making of tamales. This will help her take advantage of the upcoming season of good sales.
By investing the previous loan in her tamales business, sales increased as did her profits, since she stocked her inventory with everything necessary to meet her customers' orders. Her customers prefer her product because it is made in an artisanal way, that is, it is cooked on a wood-burning stove. She does not mention any changes in the number of people in her family group.
