Marcial Salvador Palacio Guido

Mr. Marcial is a man who at 58 years of age, has succeeded, through considerable effort, in maintaining his business for 30 years. At first, he was a pork butcher and sold meat in his house and in the market. Then, little by little he began selling new and used shoes and now has obtained a good inventory. He lives in the José Dolores Estrada neighborhood in the capital Managua. He is married and has six independent children - some are also shopkeepers. He thanks God for his good health and the ability to support his family. He has benefitted greatly from the Afodenic loans which he used to buy shoes. With this loan, he hopes to buy a variety shoes, both new and second hand ones which may be more feasible for his customers. He sells them at a market in the capital Managua which, due to the variety of products and low prices, is popular with Nicaraguans.
