Vilma Del Carmen's story
Vilma lives with her partner and a daughter, who is an adult and financially dependent. She says that she has no relatives living abroad. Vilma's present business is selling various products in her store. She started the business 3 years ago on her own initiative, because in her area there isn't a lot of competition. Vilma already had experience in business, because she sold seafood for a time. She runs her business everyday from 6:00 am. to 8:00 pm.
Vilma is asking for a loan to obtain working capital to fortify her business. The funds from the loan will be to buy detergent, sugar, coffee, rice, cooking oil, and more to increase her store's inventory. The loan will allow to her to maintain continuity in her business, because she will have enough inventory to meet the needs of her customers. She will. She will also buy wholesale, which will reduce costs and her profits will increase.
Vilma's goal is to have financial stability in her business.
