In the past, Uguljon would come out to the market and help her sister sell goods on the market. Over time she decided to start her own business. Her husband provided her with the startup capital. She has also obtained a loan from MicroInvest. Since then, her business has gotten significantly larger. Uguljon is 45 and married. Both her husband and her elder son work. Her younger son and her daughter help her with the business. She purchases a portion of her goods from wholesalers at the market where she works. She also purchases goods in the city of Hudjan, located 35 kilometers away from where she lives and works. She plans to continue increasing the size of her business, which is the reason why she is seeking to obtain a new loan.

Раньше Угулжон выходила на базар помогать своей сестре торговать. Постепенно она решила самостоятельно заняться бизнесом. Для этого ее муж дал денег для начального капитала. Еще она получила займ в Микроинвест. С того времени ее бизнес заметно расширился. Угулчон 45 лет, она замужем. Ее муж и старший сын работают, младший сын и дочь помогают матери на базаре. Товар она покупает у оптовых продавцов здесь же на базаре и еще ездит за товаром в г. Худжанд который находится в 35 км. Она собирается и дальше расширять свой бизнес и хочет получить для этого новый займ.

Visiting Uguljon in the bazaar
 
Entrepreneur: Uguljon Ashurova
Location: Spitamen, Tajikistan

Uguljon was busy with her sweets business when I stopped by for a visit last week. She sells a wide assortment of candies and cookies just one aisle over from her good friend and neighbor Karomat who is also a Kiva client. While both sell sweets, they carefully choose their inventory to avoid any overlap and ensure the broadest possible variety for bazaar shoppers. Uguljon started her business over 10 years ago and has developed a loyal base of customers. In Tajik bazaars, bargaining is not common and prices are generally posted on merchandise. With the upcoming New Year holiday on January 1st, Uguljon reports business is good as most families stock up on sweets for the occasion. She credits her Kiva loan with allowing her to keep a good assortment and sends her thanks to all the lenders.
