Blanca is a young woman who is 20 years of age. She lives with her mother and siblings in a modest home. With the help of her mother, Blanca was able to start a business of selling candies and snacks to stores in the area. She continues to manage this business so that she can provide support for her mother.
Blanca has noticed that her customers continue to increase the number of orders they place. Since she travels between two major cities, she allows her customers to buy on credit and then collects payments two or three weeks later. Blanca needs an injection of capital into her business, so she is requesting a loan to buy cases of gum, chocolates, cookies, snack foods, and other products.
She aspires to improve in her work each day so that she can have a successful business that will help her entire family.
