Claudia

Claudia is an enthusiastic entrepreneur from Medellín, Antioquia, with 20 years of experience. She owns a mobile cart where she offers a wide variety of hot beverages such as coffee, hot chocolate, and “agua de panela” (a traditional drink made by dissolving panela in hot water), accompanied by homemade bread rolls. Claudia sets up her stand in one of the main parks of her municipality, traveling there daily by public transportation. This allows her to maintain her sales point in a strategic and busy location. However, daily transportation costs and the difficulty of carrying all her supplies limit her operating capacity.

Claudia lives in a house she rents monthly. She has an independent adult son who supports her and values the effort she makes to sustain her business.

A loan of $5,715,082 COP will allow Claudia to purchase a motorcycle to optimize her commute to her mobile hot beverage stand. This investment will improve her punctuality when opening her stand, strengthen the continuity of her business, and contribute to the growth of her productive activity.
