Pita Rose is currently in the business of selling charcoal and bread at her home and is requesting a loan to purchase more bags of charcoal to sell. Pita is 30 years old. Her husband is a businessman. They have four children who all go to school. With the extra profits from her loan, she hopes to be able to build a charcoal store at the nearby market.
