Located in Trapeang Pring Village, Trapeang Pring Commune, Dambe District, Tboung Khmum Province, Mrs. Pho Vanna and her husband run a family-based pig farming business. Mrs. Vanna shared that, in the past, their living conditions were not as good as they are today due to financial difficulties within the family.

Over time, the family’s livelihood gradually improved after Mrs. Vanna decided to partner with LOLC (Cambodia) as a financial solution provider to address their financial challenges.

Within just two years, both her farming and pig-raising businesses have yielded impressive results, significantly increased her family’s income and improved their overall living conditions, leading to greater financial stability.
Mrs. Vanna expressed her happiness with the positive outcomes she achieved through the support of LOLC (Cambodia) loans.

Mr. Ri Rath, a farmer from Pech Chreada District, Mondulkiri Province, grows cassava and cashew trees.
Let’s read another inspiring client story from the northeastern region of Pech Chreada District, Mondulkiri Province, where a model farmer is successfully managing a large-scale agricultural business with great intelligence, dedication, and hard work.
Mr. Ri Rath, a farmer from Pech Chreada District, Mondulkiri Province, grows cassava and cashew trees. He is a man of strong determination and clear goals, devoted to developing his agricultural livelihood and expanding his farming operations. Today, his farm is flourishing and producing excellent results.
While walking through his cassava fields, Mr. Rath shared his experiences and the challenges he has faced, as well as the solutions that have led him to achieve his current success. He explained that cassava farming requires a large amount of capital to hire workers and rent tractors for land preparation. Due to limited financial resources, he sought a reliable financial partner to support his farming activities.
For this reason, Mr. Rath decided to partner with LOLC (Cambodia) as his trusted financial institution. He obtained his first loan from LOLC (Cambodia) in 2018, totaling 10,000,000 riels, which he used to hire workers and rent tractors for his cassava farm. Later, he continued to take additional loans in the following years to further strengthen and expand his cassava and cashew plantations. The significant investment he made in his agricultural business has paid off remarkably, as his harvest yields have steadily improved year after year since having sufficient financial resources to support the farming process, leading to a continuous increase in his income.
With a long-term vision and smart decision-making, Mr. Rath used his existing income along with his fourth loan from LOLC (Cambodia) to purchase his own tractor, eliminating the need to rent one from others. This wise step has helped him reduce expenses on land preparation, improve his farm productivity, increase yields and income, and ultimately enhance his family’s standard of living.

“For more than five years, I have been running a wholesale and retail business selling consumer goods with strong support from my customers. However, whenever I received many orders, I always found it difficult to supply goods on time because my stock was insufficient and my capital was still limited to purchase additional inventory,” said Mrs. Savon.
To find a solution and meet customer demands in a timely manner, Mrs. Savon contacted LOLC (Cambodia), a financial institution that supports business owners who need working capital to expand their businesses. She decided to take her first loan from LOLC (Cambodia) in 2019.
With her first loan of USD 1,000, she was able to purchase more stock for her shop. From that experience, she realized that LOLC (Cambodia)’s loan products truly offered favorable terms and conditions suitable for her business needs. As a result, in 2024, she applied for a second loan of USD 10,000 to further expand her wholesale and retail business.
Today, Mrs. Sok Savon has a wide variety of products in stock, sufficient to supply both her wholesale and retail customers. Her business expansion was a smart move that has led to a steady increase in her income, thanks to her ability to serve both existing and new customers more effectively.
This story is a clear example showing that having a reliable financial partner and using loans responsibly and purposefully can truly help turn every business owner’s dream into reality.
