The group "Colquiri" is chaired by Jorge Raymundo and comprises 13 members. All the men in the group offer transportation services to passengers and all the women have stores in which they sell refreshments, chicken, clothes, food and bakery. The members operate in a highly competitive environment, but they know how to get ahead with hard work and dedication.


The members who work in public transportation offer a large variety of routes and have a secure income, as passenger demand is high. But their tools need permanent maintenance, which is why these members require a loan for the repair of their vehicles.


The women, for their part, must increase their working capital. They have some experience in solidarity loans due to their previous membership in organizations similar to Fundación Agricapital. However, they prefer this institution, because it offers them better opportunities to boost their turnover and expand their business. They can thus make sure of a better quality of life for their families and a better education for their children.

El grupo “Colquiri” Esta representado por el señor Jorge Reymundo y conformado por 13 miembros dentro de los cuales todos los varones del grupo se dedican al transporte público de pasajeros y entre las socias mujeres se dedican al comercio de diferentes productos como la venta de refrescos, pollo, ropa, comida, y panadería. La competencia en el ámbito comercial es alta pero las socias saben como salir adelante con esfuerzo y dedicación entre los socios que trabajan en el transporte público existe gran oferta de rutas pero la demanda de pasajeros también es alta por lo que cuentan con ingresos seguros, pero sus herramientas de trabajo siempre requieren de mantenimiento es por esta razón que requieren el financiamiento para la reparación de sus vehículos y a las socias comerciantes para el incremento de su capital de trabajo. Las socias cuentan con experiencia en créditos solidarios gracias a su experiencia en entidades similares a la Fundación Agrocapital, pero la institución le da mayores ventajas para poder incrementar mas sus ventas y hacer crecer sus negocios para poder darles a sus familias y a sus hijos una mejor calida de vida y una mejor educación.
