In this, she continued to do better and better and now sells a large number of chickens. Currently she is continuing with the same business in the stall that she rents in the Central Market. There she offers her service to the community residents and to housewives.
With this $3,000 sol loan ($1025), she will buy live chickens in crates so that she can sell more and please her customers.
