Guadalupe Espicia

Guadalupe is 56 years old and studied up to second grade in school. She is a single mother and has four children, one of whom lives with her.

Guadalupe has been in the cheese trade for 8 years and started her business out of a desire to generate income to get ahead. She sells her products on an itinerant basis and her working hours are from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon.

She needs the loan to buy a large quantity of cheese and milk, and also to process it and make dairy products herself.

Guadalupe wants to continue working and have a better quality of life.
