The project
Chea Savong is 33 years old and sells vegetables and fruits in the Siem Reap province. Her business has been around for about six years. Selling vegetables and fruits has been a difficult business, as there is high inflation and weather conditions that have not been conducive to a good growing season.
She is asking for a loan to make two investments. She would like to purchase her fruit stand so that she will not pay the fee monthly, and also expand her own fruit business, increasing her stock of fruits to sell. She sees these investments as opportunities that will be able to increase her daily income.
