Jessica is a single mother. She lives with three children - a boy, age 14, and two girls, ages 10 and 4 years old. All are her dependents. She does not have relatives living abroad.
Jessica has worked selling coconuts for 5 years. Her mother taught her the business. She has one employee and she serves the public from 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
She is requesting a loan to strengthen her business. She will invest the borrowed funds to buy coconuts and cashew seeds wholesale, to improve her profit margin. Also she will offer a new product. The risk of the investment is that she does not invest in the business.
Her aspirations are to make her business grow and to have a better economic situation to meet the needs of her family.
