Alma has a small business selling linens and blankets. She has a small inventory on hand for customers to view, and then she buys based on their orders. She is paid by her customers when the linens arrive.
Alma recently learned about the opportunity of getting a loan and she is excited to request one. She will use the loan to purchase additional sample quilts, as having samples on hand helps her sell more.
With the profits she earns, she will buy shoes, clothing, and nutritious food for her two children. Alma is hoping someday to build her own house in a piece of land her parents-in-law gave her.
Alma lives with her husband and their two children in Mexico.
Retail is a quick and scalable way to begin earning a profit. Many entrepreneurs entrepreneur begin with stalls at markets or even at home and need a loan to expand or increase their inventory. Others may be ready to open a small store. Goods purchased from loan funds range from clothing, grocery or sundry items to jewelry, candy, perfume or health and beauty supplies. Loans in the commerce sector account for around 33% of our loans.

Mrs. Alma used the loan to purchase the blankets that her clients had already ordered, and she had to deliver them. She also bought some baskets to sell.
Since her clients pay her right away, she can reinvest the money into purchasing more merchandise. This has produced some great results since the baskets sell really well.
She is grateful to God because her sales have been great, and she has been able to help her husband purchase a stove.
Mr. Alma says, "Thank you for helping me."
