Santiago is 51 years old, married to his wife who is 49 years old. They have 4 children, three daughters and one son, all of them study, and the oldest will finish highschool this year.



From the time he was young, Santiago was learning to work in the small business with his parents. With a lot of sacrifice, he became a main producer in agriculture in the area where he lived. After he married, he continued working in the same business, watching the business grow as a result of his sacrifice, and seeing his family progressing more and more. With the income he was able to open a dispensary in his house and also raise the cattle successfully.



His hope is to continue growing and improving his business to offer a better future for his children, and see them as professional, ethical and hardworking. He wants this loan to buy livestock, as raising and selling the animals generates an excellent profit margin.




El señor Santiago, tiene 51 años de edad y su esposa 49, tienen cuatro hijos, tres mujeres y un varón, todos estudian; tres están en edad escolar y la mayor termina este año el colegio.

Desde la infancia don Santiago fue aprendiendo a trabajar en la chacra con sus padres con mucho sacrificio llegando a ser un gran agricultor y productor de la zona donde vive. Después de casarse continuó trabajando en la misma actividad, viendo crecer el fruto de su sacrificio y el de su familia progresando cada vez más, ya que con los ingresos que obtuvo pudo abrir una despensa en su casa y también realiza engorde de ganados vacunos con éxito.

Su deseo es continuar creciendo y mejorar cada vez más su negocio para así ofrecerle un mejor futuro a sus hijos y verlos profesionales, éticos y trabajadores. Desea el crédito para comprar ganado vacuno, ya que el engorde y venta de estos animales generan un excelente margen de ganancias.
