The project
Mrs. Ly Sarus, 39, is a married mother of two school aged children, who lives in the rural village in Tbong khmum Province, Cambodia. Her husband is a farmer and has been working in the cassava and rubber farm. And she is a business woman who has been operating in the grocery store at home to make profits for the past 17 years. Once a week, she gets up in the early morning and got the taxi to the capital province to purchase the grocery such as drinks, source, ingredients, sugar canes, and needs product for resell.
Since this business is getting well from day to day, she decided to ask for a loan to purchase a car use to transport products from the market to her store. She sees this purchase will allow her to save money from transportation costs and increase her family profits.
Local partner Kredit will provide the loan, which has to be repaid in 36 months.
