Mrs. Loeub Phen, age 48, is a widow who makes and sells traditional Khmer cakes such as Num Ansorm, Num Korm, and Num Bot. The ingredients are sticky rice, sugar, pieces of pork, and peanuts.

All of these kinds of cakes are made by wrapping the sticky rice and peanut mixture in banana leaves and cooking them in a steamy pot. Loeub Phen starts cooking her cakes in the early morning. She sells the cakes in different locations in her area, making about $5/day of profit.

Mrs. Loeub Phen has five children. Three of them are employed by a factory, one is a goldsmith, and another is enrolled in school.

Mrs. Phen needs more capital to expand her business. She has applied for a loan to purchase more ingredients so that she can increase the number of her cakes she makes, as well as her profit margin.
