Delmi Marbeli's story

Delmi has been selling snacks out of her home for the past 11 years. It’s evident that she’s been able to manage her business well over the years, as her living conditions have improved.

She tells us and we have seen that she also sells products via catalogs, such as Avon, Arabella, and Zelsa. Delmi has been able to gain customers because of the attention she gives them and her place of business has a clean and friendly atmosphere.

Delmi is married, but her husband has emigrated to the United States in search of a better life and she tells us that the money she receives from him she uses to make improvements to their home. Her two children live with her and both of them are completing junior high school. She will use the money from this loan to buy soft drinks, plates, vegetables, meats, etc.
