Back to business - Alberto's comeback in Guadalajara
A neighborhood bakery in Guadalajara needs help replacing a commercial oven after a long illness and repossession.
🇲🇽 Mexico813 views
For nine years I have run a neighborhood bakery in Guadalajara. In August, a long illness and repossession took a commercial oven. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Tuesday, and I employed 1 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 5 weeks.
This business pays my children's school fees and rent. I have already started working from home in small ways, but I can't meet orders without proper equipment.
Every contribution brings me closer to reopening, and I promise to post photos as I buy each item.
I'll buy equipment from local suppliers and post photos and receipts as I go.
Where the $1,050 goes:
• Shop repairs and licensing: $65
• Working capital for the first month: $85
• Replacing a commercial oven: $900
With deep gratitude,
Alberto

Update from Guadalajara: I made the first payment toward working capital for the first month. We're at 4% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
