The position of a power plant turbine lineman is not very rewarding financially. A couple of years ago Oleg Abramov decided that it was time to look for a more profitable position and try to start his own business. His family understood his willing to provide more income and supported him: his relative and friends, so to speak, sent the cap round, and gathered the required initial capital. Oleg started to gain experience with selling shoes.
It went well, but resupply of the stock always requires additional funds. Oleg learned about FORA and applied for a loan in September 2002. FORA did not disappoint his expectations. The loan was disbursed in a very short time, and Oleg was quite happy with the terms of the loan. After his first experience of working with FORA he intends to continue long-term cooperation with FORA.

Moreover, cosmetics and perfumery are very popular. However, after three months she understood that the help of her family is insufficient. A nice bit of money was required to purchase goods, so one had to think about taking a loan.
Evgeniya came to FORA a member of a group of businessmen. That gave her the possibility to acquire a collateral-free loan. All other terms of cooperation with FORA also were attractive.

 Some
women may find that the role of an ordinary housewife
suits them fine. But Lyubov Smirnova at some turn of her
life understood that the little family world cramps her
individuality, and hampers her self-realization. So, two
years ago she decided to start her own business. Her
husband approved her intentions, supplied her with the
initial capital, and supported Lyubov who made first steps
in the area totally new for her financially and morally.
Now she owns a beauty shop. She gained experience and
self-reliance. Now Lyubov tries to fight all new
challenges by herself. And they do arise, for example,
when you need money to purchase new equipment for the shop.
The FORA people told her about a way to solve that problem.
Here you can get a loan even without a collateral, once
you become a solidarity group member. Lyubov followed this
advice, since she found the terms of the loan and the
speed of document preparation quite fitting. So, after the
first loan term is over, the owner of the beauty shop is
most likely to use the services of FORA for the second
time.
