Ena, 38, lives with her husband (a businessman) and their small child who is in elementary school. The house they live in is their own.

She has a small kiosk in one of the installations of an educational institution. She sells food, soft drinks, and sweets only in the mornings. She has been doing this for four years. Additionally, in the afternoons and her free time she sells brand name natural medicines. Due to her performance she rose to become a supervisor and trainer. She feels very satisfied with her work. What she likes best about her work is feeling like a useful person. Also, it is very profitable for her because she has established customers and her earnings are good. In the future she would like to have her own restaurant.

She has had five loans with MFP. What she likes about her group is that they support each other, are communicative, and are very responsible. She will use the money she is asking for to buy groceries for her business of selling food. She will also buy natural medicines to have in stock.

Ena, de 38 años, vive con su esposo (comerciante) y su pequeño hijo que cursa estudios primarios, la casa que habitan es propia. Ella cuenta con un pequeño kiosco dentro de las instalaciones de una institución educativa, donde vende comida, refrescos y golosinas sólo por las mañanas, esta actividad que la viene ejerciendo desde hace 4 años. Adicionalmente, por las tardes y en sus ratos libres se dedica a la venta de medicinas naturales de una marca reconocida en su ciudad y debido a su buen desempeño ascendió de supervisora y capacitadora, por lo que se siente muy satisfecha con sus labores. Lo que más le gusta de su trabajo es sentirse una persona útil, además que le es muy rentable porque cuenta con clientes estables y sus ingresos son buenos. Para el futuro le gustaría tener su propio restaurante.

Ya tiene 5 préstamos con MFP y lo que le gusta de su grupo es que entre todos se apoyan, son comunicativos y muy responsables. Con el dinero que solicita comprará comestibles para su negocio de venta de comida, también productos de medicina naturales para tener en stock.

Update on Ena
 
Entrepreneur: Ena
Location: Pucallpa, Peru

Ena is 38 years old and lives with her husband, who is a businessman, and their young child. For years, Ena has operated a food kiosk at a local high school where she sells food, soft drinks and sweets. She says that business has been really good in recent months. In the afternoons Ena sells brand name natural medicines. She explained that several years ago she was quite sick, and began taking such medicines. She wanted to get a discount and she believed in the effectiveness of the products, so she began selling the medicines to her friends and neighbors. Due to her performance, Ena became a supervisor and began training others to sell the products. She says that her dream is to own a store out of which can sell her natural medicines.

Ena is pictured here in her food kiosk at the local high school.
