Mr. Sam Sokuy, a 45-year-old motor and car mechanic, and his wife, a tailor, reside in Chhnal Moan village, Chhnal Moan commune, Koas Krala district, Battambang province. According to Mr. Sokuy, he has been working as a mechanic for four years, while his wife has been running her tailoring business. However, their businesses did not grow due to a lack of funds to improve their existing businesses. After getting information of LOLC from his relatives, Sokuy and his wife decided to apply for their first loan in 2021.
They used the loan to purchase spare parts for repairing motorcycles and cars, as well as fabric for Nub Sunan’s business. The loan helped them meet the demand from customers, and they applied for a second loan at the end of 2022
to buy more sewing machines. Now, both of their businesses have grown significantly because there are enough fabrics and materials to meet the needs of customers and all kinds of spare parts for repairing motorcycles and heavy vehicles, which can increase their income and make his family life better. Sokuy said, "The loan from LOLC has really improved my family's life and I believe that I will be able to support my four children to get a good education."
