Gladys Noumedo has had her own salon since 1983. Throughout the years she has grown her product base, until now she sells braids, traditional clothing, ice, and drinks in addition to a larger salon. She puts her revenues into savings, her children, and buying more ice and drinks. The loans she has been receiving over the past 5 years have improved her quality of life and her revenues.
