Basilidesa is 54 years old, married, and lives with her husband and children in a house they were able to get many years ago, thanks to their hard work. 20 years ago Basilidesa started a store, selling a variety of home products. However, market demand made her change her work, so she now sells clothing. She sells clothing in the street markets in the city, offering her merchandise with good customer service in order to win more customers.

Basilidesa's good sense of humor helps her sell her products; she provides the best customer service and the high product quality demanded by her customers, who visit her home to place orders. In the future she plans to set up a bazaar in her home where she can offer a variety of beauty products that her customers have been requesting. Her customers' needs motivate her to make progress.

This is her 6th loan with Microfinanzas PRISMA; she hopes to keep relying on their support and trust in giving her the loans she needs. The 1,000 PEN that she is requesting will allow her to take advantage of the supermarket sales where she purchases high quality articles of clothing.

Basilidesa tiene 54 años, es casada y vive con su esposo e hijos en la casa que por años obtuvieron gracias al trabajo de su pareja. Hace 20 años inició su negocio como comerciante, vendiendo variedad de productos para el hogar, sin embargo la exigencia del mercado la obligaron a cambiar de rubro, es por ello que ahora la encontramos vendiendo prendas de vestir. Esta actividad lo realiza en las calles de su ciudad, donde sale a ofrecer su mercadería considerando siempre en brindar un mejor servicio con el fin de ganarse a las personas y aumentar el número de clientes. Su gran sentido del humor la beneficia al momento de ofrecer sus productos, dando siempre la mejor atención y la mejor calidad cumpliendo siempre con los requerimientos de sus clientes, quienes la visitan en su domicilio para realizar sus pedidos con anticipación. Sus planes a futuro son de instalar en su domicilio un bazar donde pueda ofrecer variedad de productos de belleza para su exigente clientela quienes la motivaron a progresar. Este es su sexto crédito con Microfinanzas PRISMA, espera seguir contando con el apoyo y la confianza para darle el crédito que necesita. Los 1000 soles que solicita le permitirán aprovechar algunas liquidaciones en los supermercados donde obtiene las prendas de calidad.
