A loan helped to buy chargers, phone covers, memory cards, plastic items, and perfumes.


Mario Antonio's story

Mario Antonio is 25 years old and in a common-law marriage. He has one child and lives with his family in the municipality of Tocoa, department of Cortes. For three years he has made a living buying and selling telephone accessories, general plastic products, and catalogue products.

He is now requesting a loan from ODEF in the amount of 14,000 Lempiras in order to buy chargers, phone covers, memory cards, plastic items, and perfumes.

He believes the loan will help him to increase his inventory and sales, thus improving his profits, which will help his family get ahead.
