Lourdes María's story

Lourdes María has had her commercial eatery for six years. Her goal is to invest in her business. In light of that, she seeks this loan to buy materials to work on the infrastructure of her business.

This will help her make repairs and necessary improvements so that she can count on a space where she can tend to her customers. They will feel more comfortable, and the space will be nicer. This will allow Lourdes to continue growing with her eatery, so she can move forward.
