A loan helped to buy and sell clothing and beauty products.


Deolinda's story

Deolinda was born in Namaacha, is 35 years old, and lives with her partner. She has three young children, two of whom are in school, and she isn't responsible for anyone else.
She lives with her family in a house she owns and has been a retailer for more than ten years. She is asking for this financing to invest in her business by acquiring bales of clothing and hair in order to develop her business.
She is a repeat borrower; she invested in the same business and in work on her house with the previous loans. In the future, she intends to finish her house.
