When Luisa started her business a year ago, she was not certain about its future. At that time, she didn’t have access to capital, and she had invested all her money buying stock.


Fortunately, she received a loan from FSMA that allowed her to increase and diversify her inventory and move her business forward. Currently, Luisa offers a large selection of sheets, curtains, and shoes to buyers in the Hato Nuevo community of San Cristobal.


Luisa explains that her business helps her to keep her four children in school. The entrepreneur hopes that if her business continues to grow, she’ll be able to buy her own house someday.
