Mrs. Kim Khun, age 43, raises and sells pigs to earn $2 per day. Her husband climbs palm trees to collect sap to boil and produce palm sugar, which he sells in the market, making $5 per day. They have three children, one who sells rice and foodstuffs at the market and two who work as blacksmiths making $2 per day each.

Mrs. Kim Khun would like to borrow $750 to purchase a rice hulling mill so that they can start a business separating the rice from the hull for rice farmers and thereby increase their income.

Loan Update Entrepreneur: Kim Khun Location: Kampong Cham Province, Cambodia Kim Khun, 43, lives with her husband and three children in Kampong Cham, Cambodia. Kim raises pigs, and her husband sells palm sugar. Kim asked for this loan so she could buy a rice-hulling machine. A CREDIT MFI loan officer recently visited Kim to check on her progress. After receiving her loan, Kim said she bought a rice-hulling machine. Now that she has her new business set up, she earns about $3 per day selling hulled rice. She then cycles the extra profits back into the business so she can buy more rice to hull. Kim said that she spends the extra income that she keeps on better food and clothing for the family. Kim said she wants to take out another loan in the future so she can expand her pig-breeding business. When asked, Kim said she was thankful to CREDIT for its good service, and to Kiva lenders for supporting her loan.
