Frida Tomas Huaman

Frida is 33 years old and lives with her three young children. She owns a small shop that she obtained after much effort six months ago. Since then, she has dedicated all of her time to this business. Thanks to establishing it in her own home, she is able to attend to both her business and her home, since she separated from her husband and has to assume the double role of mother and father to her children. Without a doubt, this business has helped her a lot with her finances. However, what truly makes her happy is to satisfy the needs of her neighbors, since there are few shops in her community, so it is very beneficial. What is difficult is having to travel to the city every week in order to stock her shop.

For Frida, her motivation is her three small children, who need her to get ahead. She wishes to increase her products and improve the environment of her shop in order to provide better care to her customers.

Frida tiene 33 años, vive con sus 3 hijos menores de edad. Tiene su pequeña bodega, que con mucho esfuerzo logró obtener hace 6 meses, desde entonces se dedica a ello a tiempo completo, gracias a que la instaló en su propio domicilio le ayuda a estar pendiente de su negocio y de su hogar, ya que se separó de su pareja y tiene que asumir doble rol de madre y padre para sus hijos.Sin duda, este negocio le ha ayudado mucho en su economía, pero lo que en verdad le agrada es poder satisfacer las necesidades de sus vecinos, ya que hay pocas tiendas en su comunidad, lo que es muy beneficioso para ella. Lo difícil es que tiene que trasladarse a las ciudades cada semana, para surtir su bodega.
Para Frida su motivo de progreso son sus tres pequeños hijos, quienes requieren de ella para salir adelante.
Desea incrementar sus productos y mejorar el ambiente de su bodega, para brindar una mejor atención a sus clientes.
