Marina owns a general store and is committed to working hard: “I am the only one working and I plan to have business expansion this year.” She needs a loan to purchase more groceries and other items to have merchandise available to sell in her store. With a more fully stocked store, she will attract more customers and make a better profit
Marina is 48-years-old and lives with her five children, Bless, Karin, Kathy, Dave, and Aime, in Espanola, Palawan. She will use her profits to provide for her family and invest in another business opportunity.
In areas where the poor live alongside the more affluent, businesses in the service sector can be very successful. Services include flower cultivation, tailoring/sewing, transportation, repair work, beauty salons and barber shops, and restaurants. Loans are needed to begin, expand, or sustain business with tools and supplies. Loans given to entrepreneurs in the service sector account for around 7% of our loans.

Marina used the loan money she received to invest in her store. She has been able to purchase more inventory to sell. The increase in inventory will help her to gain more customers.
Her sales have gone up, especially over the weekends. Her increase in sales is helping her profits to also increase. She now has a higher income which allows her to take care of her family.
She is paying her loan on time. Thank you for supporting Marina and World Vision Micro!
Marina's store is doing well. The loan made it possible for her to increase her inventory. Fuller store displays helped her to attract more customers. As a result both her sales and profits increased.
