The project

Marietta Biendima is a resident of Cavite, married to Benjamin. She is the sole owner of “Marietta Biendima Fruits and Vegetable Dealer”, named next to her. Its operation started in year 2000, engaged in buy and sell of fruits and vegetables. Some of the products were bought in Divisoria, Manila and some comes from their small farm in Nueva Ecija, where vegetables are transported directly to Cavite. She maintains three stalls in different towns of Cavite, which is located in Alfonso, Indang, and Mendez public markets. She also supplies to other public markets which increases her sales. 

At present, all her five workers are out of school youth that receives meal, aside from the weekly compensation. 

Lendahand and its local partner NPFC, will help Marietta acquire working capital to purchase bulk orders of vegetables and fruits.
