    While reviewing sales records with her husband, Mrs. Pum Sros, a grocery seller, and laundress in Siem Reap, shared significant insights about her business journey with the LOLC team. Initially, at first, she only sold a few groceries. However, recognizing the opportunity to better serve her customers and boost her income, she made the decision to seek a loan from LOLC Cambodia. She said with confidence that the capital from LOLC Cambodia loans had a significant impact on the growth of her business. She revealed that she utilized up to three loan cycles to expand her operations, purchasing more items to wholesale to small and medium-sized vendors in the community and buying washing machines for her new laundry business. Through this business expansion, she has more regular customers, both wholesale and retail, which has greatly increased her income. The right financial decision gave her more capital to run the business, which helped her earn more money to better support her family.
