Asma's story
Surrounded by poor financial circumstances, Asma needed to start her own business and increase her purchasing power to meet her household expenditures financially.
Asma is a 49-year-old married woman and a mother of four children. She is a hardworking mother who is helping her family by providing tailoring services in her community. She has been doing it for many years. She knows the techniques of stitching very well. Her regular customers are her neighbours and the local community. She earns enough to lead a decent life.
To help her continue her business operations, she requested a loan of 200,000 PKR to buy stitching material such as spools of threads in different colours and packs of zips and buttons, etc. to sew more dresses on time. In addition to repaying the loan, she will use part of the revenues to deal with personal expenses.
