Client Success Story

    Income from various sources, combined with proper financial support, has led to stable, strong, and secure financial management for Mrs. Chheak Sin’s family.

    Mrs. Sin is a food vendor and grocery seller. In addition to these jobs, she is also a farmer and pig raiser, residing in Pongro Ta Lei Village, Ampil Commune, Banteay Ampil District, in Oddar Meanchey Province. Mrs. Sin shared with LOLC Cambodia that her income has increased significantly from the four occupations mentioned above, thanks in part to LOLC Cambodia’s loans. She made sound decisions and had clear plans for utilizing the loans effectively, which has brought significant improvements and growth to her family’s livelihood. She added that she had been aware of LOLC Cambodia’s loan products for a long time and decided to seek consult and use the loans for three consecutive cycles. Mrs. Sin revealed that she applied for her first loan in 2022 to buy more inventory for her grocery-selling business. Later, she took a second loan in 2023 to build two Khmer cottages (ខ្យុស) to accommodate guests in her food business, and a portion of the loan was used to start a new business: buying pigs for raising and selling. The most recent loan was requested to expand the purchase of farming supplies to double crop yields, while the remaining amount was used to purchase an additional grocery-selling inventory in 2024. Ms. Sin’s story highlights how LOLC Cambodia’s loans have played a crucial role in strengthening and growing clients’ businesses, as well as enhancing their family’s income-generating capacity, ultimately improving their overall quality of life.
