A loan helped to purchase watermelons, bananas, tomatoes, and onions, all of this wholesale, to increase her inventory and generate more sales.


Lilliam Del Carmen's story

This is Lilliam, an older microentrepreneur who has managed to get ahead with selling the freshest and cleanest fruits and vegetables. Lilliam is aware that the financial backing these two institutions have given her has been key for her growth.

For the fourth time, Lilliam has asked MiCrédito for a Kiva loan to purchase watermelons, bananas, tomatoes, and onions, all of this wholesale, to increase her inventory and generate more sales which will positively impact her finances. Lilliam wants to continue working with these partners.
