Lan's story
Lan is 43 years old and lives in Triệu Sơn Commune. Her husband has passed away, and she is the main provider for her family. She is raising her 16-year-old child, who is still in school, and taking care of her elderly, sick mother. Despite many challenges, she continues to work hard to support her family.
Lan has more than 15 years of experience in small trading, still her household is classified as low-income in the local area. Her main difficulty is that many customers buy goods on credit, which affects her business capital. She is applying for her first loan from Thanh Hóa MFI to expand her small shop and purchase additional products, such as shampoo, body wash, soft drinks, and snacks, to better serve her customers and increase her income.
In the future, Lan hopes her child will study well and succeed and that she can earn enough income to support her child’s education while also saving some money to prepare for unexpected risks, such as illness or unemployment.
