Katy Marisol's story

Katy Marisol and her family live in Portoviejo, an area with beautiful country landscapes and beaches that are visited by tourists throughout the year.

She is a hardworking woman who looks for ways to earn resources to help her family get ahead. She makes a living selling clothing, shoes, handbags, belts, watches and other products that she receives from abroad and later sells. She also sells Oriflame products (cosmetics, perfumes, lotions, jewelry and more). She sells door to door, from her home and on social media. She sells on credit and collects every 8 days. This is how she plans to continue and it is thanks to the support from loans. She is very grateful and asks for continued help.

This loan will be used to purchase pants, shirts, blouses, perfumes, shoes, cosmetics, lotions, jewelry and other products.
