A loan helped a member to buy soft drinks wholesale.


Cristalinas Group's story

The communal bank "Cristalinas" is part of the Villa Tejada Agency. It is composed of eight members and is led by a board of directors where Señora Cristina is the president.

Cristina, age 61, is single and has four children. She has a business of selling soft drinks. With her loan, she will buy soft drinks wholesale. She will acquire them from the wholesale sellers in the city of La Paz and later sell them at her sales stand. This form of work allows her to generate resources to support her family economically.

Her aspirations are to enlarge her business.

Cristina asks that you again have confidence in their communal bank.
