Fatima Antonia

Fatima is a vendor who has been running her used clothing business for two years. During this time, she has faced several challenges, especially the need to diversify her inventory to attract more customers. Recognizing this opportunity for improvement, she has decided to expand her product offerings. Her work is also essential for supporting her two teenage children. Therefore, she is looking to strengthen her business.

Fatima is applying for a loan to purchase basic food items such as meat, corn flour, and rice, which she plans to sell alongside the used clothing. This financing will allow her to improve her offerings and thus increase her income, as well as help feed her children. Her future goal is to increase her sales and provide her family with a more stable and fulfilling life.
