Mujeres Emprendedoras De Ypane Group

Gloria is a dedicated entrepreneur and a member of the credit group "Mujeres Emprendedoras de Ypane". She is the mother of three children and currently runs a small grocery store from her home, a business she decided to start driven by the dream of having her own enterprise. For many years she was a homemaker, but thanks to joining the credit group she was able to begin investing gradually and consistently, turning that aspiration into a real source of income for her family.

Her goal is to continue growing her grocery store day by day and to consolidate it as a legacy for her children in the future, providing them with greater opportunities and economic stability. With the current loan, Gloria plans to invest in high-turnover products with strong demand in her community, such as beef trimmings, chicken drumsticks, sugar, noodles, powdered soap, flour, yerba mate, and rice. This investment will allow her to maintain adequate stock, better meet her customers’ needs, and strengthen the sustainability of her business.

The credit group to which she belongs is made up of women who run various ventures, such as the sale of shaved ice treats, cleaning products, fast food, fruits, and handicrafts, as well as working as seamstresses, dressmakers, decorators, and managers of snack bars and grocery stores, promoting economic development and mutual support within their community. (The child who appears in the photo is the son of one of the group members.)
