Maribel De La Asuncion's story

Maribel De La Asuncion and her family live in Portoviejo. The city was affected by the earthquake on April 16th, 2016. The city is rich in the production of vegetables, legumes, and tropical fruits for domestic consumption.

Maribel De La Asuncion devotes herself to selling various products like watches, costume jewelry, sets of sheets, wallets, blankets, creams, perfume, and other products that her customers request. She works selling on Mondays through Saturdays. She sells at home and by making trips to various parts of the city. She leaves the merchandise on credit, and she collects weekly.
