A loan helped to buy grocery products such as soft drinks, meats, chicken, beverages, and snacks; and to buy cement, sand, etc. for her block-making factory.


Lesbia Emilda's story

She lives in Barrio El Campo with her family. She engages in various business activities.

Her small grocery store, selling groceries in general, has an extensive customer base since it is located in a strategic area with students being some of her potential customers. It is located on a main street that connects to other neighborhoods. She has 4 years of experience in this line of work.

She also has a block-making factory in which she has 3 machines for manufacturing these items. She has a high demand in this activity, since it is one of the strongest in the municipality. She has good experience in this activity, since she has been doing it for 10 years. In addition, she rents out apartments.

She requests this loan for the purchase of products such as soft drinks, meats, chicken, beverages, and snacks; and for the block making factory: cement, sand, etc. In this way, she is augmenting her inventory and increasing her sales.

Her dream is to generate better income and for her family to lack for nothing. She appreciates the support received.
