A loan helped to buy lotions, body creams, cosmetic products, and other magazine products.


Ana Lisseth's story

Ana is single and lives with her two daughters, ages 5 and 3. She has no relatives living abroad. Ana has a business selling magazine products. She works from 7:00 am to 6:00 pm. She started the business 5 years ago and learned the trade from a friend.

She has decided to apply for a loan, which will provide her with working capital to strengthen her business. Ana will invest in the purchase of lotions, body creams, cosmetic products, and other magazine products, so she will be able to meet the demand of her clients. As a result, she expects her sales and profits to increase.

Ana's dream is to have better economic conditions and to provide an education for her daughters.
