Carmen is an exceptionally hardworking woman at the age of 71. She is single and the mother of four children. She has shown that age is not an obstacle to continue being a tireless entrepreneur.
Her home is in the charming locality of Yauca, and has become a landmark for the community. She works in commerce, selling beverages wholesale and retail.
With a solid experience of 8 years in this field, Carmen asks for a microloan which will allow her to purchase merchandise and expand the product line. Her vision for the future includes diversifying her offerings, which will not only benefit her regular customers but also allow her to attract new buyers and increase her sales.
