Leonidas' story
Leonidas is 65 years old and lives in Chala. She works in agriculture and also buys and sells olives, an activity that allows her to supplement her income and support her family. Experienced in handling the product, she organizes her purchases and sales according to local demand.
The olive trade requires timely capital to acquire sufficient quantities of the product and maintain business continuity. For Leonidas, having a steady supply of olives is essential to serve her customers and ensure a stable income.
Therefore, she is requesting financing to purchase more olives to sell, which will allow her to strengthen her business and continue her work with greater stability.
Supporting Leonidas means supporting a rural worker who combines production and trade to maintain her livelihood through constant effort.
