A loan helped to buy inventory and fill her grocery store with products such as rice, beans, sugar, oil, eggs, milk and cleaning products.


Brenda Magaly's story

Brenda is 28 years old. She lives in the city of Granada. She is married and has 3 children. She is a storekeeper and owns a grocery store. She started out by selling candy from a basket and soft drinks and fruit juices from a thermos of ice. In this way she worked hard to move forwards a little bit at a time. She took out a loan to buy groceries to fill the grocery store she started a year ago.

She is asking for the loan to fill her store with products such as rice, beans, sugar, oil, milk and cleaning products. This will be of great benefit as she will be able to satisfy in part the great demand for consumer products needed on a daily basis, sell more products not previously sold before and increase her income. Her next goals are to further expand her store and make improvements to her home.
