We had the opportunity to speak with Senora Dalia when she came to the ofice for her monthly repayment meeting. Group Banquito Nueva Alianza has been receiving loans from EDAPROSPO for nearly 4 years and Dalia reported that they have had very few problems with repayments. She is always sure to request amounts she is sure she will be able to repay. With her loan, Senora Delia stocked up on beauty products from a catalog for which she is a sales representative. She has regular customers whom she visits with the catalog. She stocks up on more popular products so that her customers do not have to wait for the products to arrive.

Right now she has an inventory of about 450 soles but she imagines much of that will sell over Valentines day. She is proud of this job as it keeps her family afloat when her husband can't find work, which occurs quite often due to the seasonal nature of his job. Senora Delia would like to someday soon open a shoe factory out of her home. She has the sewing machines but decided to wait a bit longer till it feels like the right time. Her children are 17 and 15 and she hopes they will go on to study business and become good at sales like their mother.
