Gustava was one of the first beneficiaries of South Pacific Business Development. Gustava sews a variety of clothing: women's Puletasi, men’s aloa, children’s wear and any other kind of clothing you want. Her sewing machine was a second-hand machine she bought when she got her first loan of $300. She sews clothes by order. If you provide your own material then Gustava will charge you less, but if you want to buy the finished product then you are charged the full amount. She also has her Banana Plantation, which is worked by her husband, to provide income to her family. Gustava is requesting a loan for her sewing business, and also for the banana plantation that her husband runs.
