Justa is 36 years old and lives with Roberto, 39. The couple has three children. They live in their own house located in the Sivia district. Justa is an honest and kind woman, who has undertaken a new business: running a grocery store. Before this, she worked in agriculture, but now her husband works in the fields.
She has always been consistent in her work. Though she never thought that it would turn out to be very profitable, her perseverance made her continue. Not only does she offer products at affordable prices, but she also provides good customer service which has made her keep her clientele. She now trusts that eventually she will have her store much more organized and with a variety of products that her customers will appreciate. This will be her second loan with MFP, and she commits to making the payments punctually. With the 2,200 nuevos soles, she will purchase more products to stock her store.
