Mentes Brilhantes Ii Group's story

Jocelia is single and lives in a rented house.  She was born in Bahia and started her professional path as a cleaning assistant. Later, she worked as a domestic employee.  Following a period of unemployment, she returned to being a cleaning assistant, but she saw an opportunity to increase her income in the food business.

She currently produces lunch boxes for regular customers with weekly orders.  She used the previous loan to invest in the purchase of equipment and utensils such as a scale, pots and other essential items that all contributed to improving her productivity.

She plans to use the new loan to buy more ingredients such as beans, rice and other items in addition to pots and materials that she needs to increase her productivity.

For the microentrepreneur, the loan is fundamental as it makes it possible to make continual improvement to her business. Jocelia and her group are grateful to the investors for the opportunity.
