Your loan to Pucarita Chica group in Bolivia
 
Entrepreneur: Pucarita Chica Group
Location: Location Undisclosed, Bolivia

I tried to contact Pucarita Chica group so that I could ask them about the impact of the loan on their businesses. Unfortunately, the loan officer informed me that Pucarita Chica's businesses grew so well that they were able to pay back their loan early and are no longer members of the microfinance institution, so it would be difficult to locate them.

Due to discrepancies between the Kiva’s automatic repayment system and AgroCapital (the microfinance institution)’s system, you will still receive the remainder of your repayments on a monthly basis.

We’re sorry we could not update you on the progress of this loan, but we thank you for your loan and encourage you to re-loan your funds to another deserving entrepreneur or group.

If these entrepreneurs interested you, consider lending to more AgroCapital clients here.
