Doris's story

Doris, a 58-year-old woman with a tireless spirit, has dedicated much of her life to developing her food and prepared dishes business in the municipality of La Dorada. Single and entrepreneurial, she found in the kitchen a way to generate income and bring well-being to her community.

Over time, her seasoning has become a local favorite, and her business has grown so much that it now has two outlets. In addition to her lunches and cakes, she also sells custom-made lotions, demonstrating her versatility and commitment to progress.

Today, Doris is applying for a loan through the Interactuar Corporation to stock her business with supplies such as meat, flour, sweeteners, and products from her perfume line. This investment will allow her to improve her service, better serve her customers, and increase her income.

Supporting Doris means supporting the talent, perseverance, and flavor of a woman who cooks with her heart and works with her soul.
