Hello, we are with the group La Era. We are four women who all live in the city of Tegucigalpa. I'm Johanna Barrientos, I'm 23 years old and I'm the coordinator of the group. Glenda Xiomara is 34 years old, Zonia Caceres is 29 and Nancy Matute is 27 years old. We are all young and work making and selling tortillas. Glenda sells clothing as well. Very early in the morning, we make the first batch of tortillas which we pack and sell. In the middle of the day, we make another batch to sell from 4 in the afternoon onwards. The demand for the tortillas has grown a lot and we can hardly cope with all of the requests. We need the loan so that we can make greater quantities and increase our sales and our income. Our other colleague needs the loan to purchase clothing for the Christmas season, as clothing sales are going well. We are confident that we will continue to grow our business.
