“I learned how to keep a more correct record of my store sales. I noticed that my sales and cash flow had become better after this. I asked my customers nicely to pay their debts first. Then I said I would sell them anything from the store after. They were angry at me in the beginning. I suppose they later understood that it was necessary. I was just trying to make a living. Now even my own kids have learned to save up, and they use their own money to buy goods from the store to take to school.”

“Record keeping is one of the skills that Nanay Remy learned through the Hapinoy training program. Before Hapinoy she had never once made a list of her sales and costs. She admits that at first, it felt like it took too much energy and time to keep a record of everything. But she continued and forced herself to do it. Soon, she was able to see and record exactly how much she had earned each day. She could also see where her money was going. Provided with the right knowledge and skills like this, she is now able to manage her store better. Although she is old, Nanay Remy is more excited about running her store than ever.”

After an average of ten months of training, the store owners can receive a loan. This money helps the store owners increase their business. They pay it back as they make money from their store. Many store owners use the loan to expand into other kinds of business. These include businesses such as bakeries that make and sell bread and sweets. Some of them rent cell phones or even have an internet cafe.

The sari-sari store is also well-placed to have a positive effect in the community. The store can supply basic medicines or technology. For example, some sari-sari’s offer solar lamps. These lights use the power of the sun for energy. People who do not have dependable electricity can use them at any time.
Voice 2 
The women who own sari-sari stores see many benefits of the training. They are able to support their families. They can help their children get a good education. And they are connected to a large network of other sari-sari owners. This is a business group but it is also social support. The women meet together to encourage each other. They help each other with their businesses.
Voice 1 
Hapinoy plans to continue its work to help train and empower more women who own small businesses. They are partnering with many organizations such as Coca-Cola and Mastercard. They plan to reach more and more of the sari-sari owners in the Philippines. And through the sari-sari’s, they hope to improve life for the whole community.
