Family grocer 

Approaching her fifties, Hanadi Youssef lost her husband after ten years of marriage due to a serious illness. Being disabled herself, she returned to live with her mother who entrusted her with the management of the family grocery store. However, the decline of the Lebanese pound affected the store’s supply. Hanadi sold her stock without being able to replace it, quickly emptying the shelves. She then turned to AEP to obtain a $1000loan to purchase in bulk. One year after obtaining the loan, Hanadi merchandise successfully manages the store. Her shelves are stocked, and she meets the needs of her customers. She has fully repaid the loan and is now seeking another to protect against any future unforeseen circumstances.
