In 2013, Vathanaphorn began her cricket-raising business to diversify her income beyond rice farming. Through years of dedication, her cricket farm has significantly improved and provided her with a steady stream of income. However, to further grow her business to meet demand, she took out a loan funded by Lendwithcare in February 2023.
With this, Vathanaphorn invested in purchasing cricket eggs, feed, paper egg trays and raising containers. This investment resulted in a noticeable increase in her customer base due to the improved and consistent supply of products offered. Moreover, her income has increased as well since the last expansion, allowing her to better support her family and improve her financial situation.
Vathanaphorn is determined to continue growing her business, ensuring that her child has a bright future and that her elderly parents are well taken care of. Vathanaphorn's success in cricket farming is a testament to her dedication and hard work. She expresses her deep gratitude to Lendwithcare and all the lenders for their financial support and encouragement, which have empowered her to move towards her goals and secure a better life for her family.
