A loan helped to pay for labor required of salt production.


Gladys Espinoza's story

Gladys is a merchant who is originally from León. She is single and the mother of one child. Gladys has been in the retail trade for 20 years. She previously managed a grocery store, but now she has a business that produces salt. Her son helps with the business, which also allows her to work as a seamstress in order to earn more income.


Her expectations include continuing her salt production business so that she can leave an inheritance for her son that will allow him to work in the future. Gladys is requesting a loan to pay for labor required of salt production. Her intention is to stop selling salt until she is able to get a better price.
