Nidia Silvana's story

Nidia is a 56-year-old woman who lives with her husband, a humble driver, in the Julio Andrade parish.

In order to contribute to her relationship, more than ten years ago, Nidia opened a business selling flowers and gifts for special occasions. She has been able to earn a good income from this business and Nidia wants to continue driving the business forward. To do this, she is applying for her first loan, which she will use to buy flowers, such as daisies, roses, petunias, and sunflowers, and plushy toys, foam, netting, linoleum and more.

Nidia then hopes to continue improving her flower business and thereby earn a higher income to support her household and give her family a decent life.
