Deyci

Deyci is 33 yars old, married, has a son, and lives in a rented house. Since before she was married she has been buying and selling fruit at wholesale and retail with her mother. For the past 6 years she has been working in the municipality of her area, so Monday through Friday her mother is in charge of the business and on Saturdays and Sundays they sell together. Additionally, every night they both do the accounting for their sales. Deyci is a business woman who has various sources of income from different businesses. In spite of having a stable job she has not stopped selling fruit because it is very profitable, and in the past she was able to support herself solely from these earnings. She knows that she cannot ask her mother to be fully responsible for the business because there are days that she sees her mother is very tired because she doesn’t have the same energy today as when she was younger. This is her 5th loan with Microfinanzas Prisma, and she is punctual with her payments. The money will be used to increase and stock fruit so that she will be able to send a good quantity to sell in Lima city, where she will earn much more money.

Deicy tiene 33 años, es casada, tiene un hijo, viven en una casa alquilada. Ante de de casarse, junto a su madre se dedicaban a la compra y venta de fruta, al por mayor y menor, pero desde hace 6 años está trabajando en la municipalidad de su localidad, entonces de lunes a viernes su madre está a cargo del negocio, y los sábados y domingos venden juntas, además todas las noches, ambas hacen el balance respectivo de sus ventas. Deyci es una mujer de negocio, por lo que considera tener varios ingresos económicos en diferentes conceptos, es por ello, que a pesar de que ahora tiene un trabajo estable, no deja la venta de fruta, porque es muy rentable, ya que en el pasado se sostenía solo de esas ganancias. Lo que lamenta es que sabe que no puede cargar a su madre con toda la responsabilidad, porque hay días que la nota muy cansada, ya que no tiene las mismas fuerzas que cuando era más joven. Es su 5to préstamo con Microfinanzas Prisma, y paga muy puntual sus cuotas. El dinero solicitado le servirá para incrementar y almacenarse de frutas, así podrá enviar una buena cantidad para venderse en la ciudad de Lima, donde ganará mucho más.
