Dinora is single and has a 10-year-old son. She and her son live with her mother and sister. Dinora sells various products in her store, a business she learned from her mother. She opened her own store 18 years ago. Dinora's work schedule is from 6:00 am. to 5:00 pm.
She is asking for a loan because with it she will be able to have more financial resources to fortify her business. She will invest in buying a wider variety of clothing, lotions, and other products to increase and diversify the inventory she offers to her customers. In this way, she will increase her sales and her profits will improve. The risk of the loan is that the client won't make the planned purchase.
Dinora's goals are to grow her business, to stabilize her financial situation, and to get ahead with her family.
