Emalinda is 56 and married. She has three children who are now all working. She lives in Negros Occidental.
Emalinda has been engaged in business through her sari-sari store and a fishing enterprise. She has received and promptly repaid several short-term loans from the cooperative. Her sari-sari store generates more than £193 per week. She maintains regular monthly loan payments and deposits into her cooperative savings account.
As a long standing member of our local development partner, FCCT Cooperative, for over 15 years, Emalinda has now applied for a loan to increase capital for her grocery store by purchasing additional stock to improve sales and profit. Emalinda hopes to expand her business and also acquire another pump boat to strengthen her fishing operations and secure a more stable livelihood.
