Zapatito Group's story

For more than four years, Xiomara has been selling new American clothing as a street vendor. She started this business because of the difficulty of finding formal employment, which motivated her to become an entrepreneur. She goes out to sell every day. She has no employees or assistance from abroad.

With the requested loan, she will invest in purchasing new and used clothing, which will allow her to have inventory for days with higher demand. This investment will be a great help in generating more income and, consequently, improving her quality of life. She, along with Nicolas and Mercedes, make up the Zapatito solidarity group.

In this group: Xiomara Lisseth, Nicolas Baltazar, Mercedes Esperanza
