Doña Esmeralda is a humble merchant who makes a living selling cosmetics. She has managed to meet her needs thanks to this business.
Previously, she benefitted from economic support from these businesses, which let her strengthen her business.
On this occasion, she has sought a new Kiva loan through MiCrédito with the goal of buying perfumes, shampoo, creams, and makeups.
Through this loan, she will be able to increase her sales and improve her quality of life.
At the moment, Esmeralda is not prepared to be a self-sufficient.
