Ana Paola is married. She lives with her husband, her mother and her three children. She started selling children’s clothes in a table in her living room, 10 years ago.
Since then, she was really kind with her costumers, which were mostly her neighbors. Ana was in love with her business and thanks to her savings and her mother’s support, she adapted a room as a local in her house, in order to improve her costumer service.
This turned out to be a good idea because people from all over the town and even thought tourists started going to her shop and buy a lot. Thanks to this, she begun to buy from other suppliers that gave her better prices, which help her have always a good inventory.
Currently, Ana sells women, men and children clothes, shoes, purses and accessories among others. For Ana, her shop is a dream come true.
Ana Paola finds it difficult when she can’t find the exact articles her costumers asked for or when people don’t want to pay on time, but she gives them payment facilities.
On the other side, her joy is when she has a good inventory and varieties, so her clients start buying as they find the latest trends. She says, her shop is a reflection of what she is: “ a responsible, respectful woman, full of love”.
Ana’s goal is to build a second floor on top of her shop, to have more space in order to organize better her products, so that her costumers have a more confortable experience when they buy.
