Maria's story
Maria is 50 years old. She works in the cosmetic creams and hair products business. Two years ago in the month of April 2013, a friend who sells products through catalogs advised her to do the same. Since her friend had been successful in her business, Maria decided to follow in her footsteps and today her biggest challenge is to get new customers in order to increase her profits.
Maria sells directly to her customers by cash and credit, working every day from 8:00 in the morning until 8:00 in the evening. Her goal is to expand her supply and for this she needs new items to turn over very rapidly, such as scented creams and general hair products. This is the reason she came for a Kiva loan through which she will buy these items and so she will reach her big purpose of increasing her earnings. This is the first financing she has had with Fundación Mario Santo Domingo
