Adding to basket
Iris is single and lives with three daughters, ages 16, 8, and 2 years. She does not have relatives living abroad.
For five years, Iris has worked selling coconuts. She started the business with her own initiative. She serves customers from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. The difficulty she has in her business comes from the rainy season.
She is requesting a loan to strengthen her business. She will invest the borrowed funds in the purchase of coconuts and hygienic bags to stock the inventory of her business. Thus she also will be able to reduce costs and increase her profit margin. The risk of the investment would be if she did not invest in the business.
Her aspirations are to make her business grow and to have better economic conditions to provide the needs of her family.
