The Banco Comunal Belen is a young bank that was started one year ago. Currently, there are four cycles and 27 partners. Maritza, Hortensia, Juana, Eulogio and Felicitas are the founding partners of the Banco Comunal. The partners tell us that through the Banco Comunal, they learn how to be punctual, responsible, to save and they say that all the partners are friends and colleagues.


The partners are involved in different businesses such as the sale of food, fruit, shoes, clothes, cereals, and cosmetics, as well as small grocery stores, appliance repair services, and the making of agriculture tools. Each partner has a different history, such as is the case of Hortensia who worked as an employee in a store and, at the same time, traveled to markets bringing clothes to sell. At first, she brought little merchandise, but presently, she has more merchandise and stock and she sells second-hand clothes. Julia also sells second-hand clothes. At first, she had very little merchandise. Now, her business has grown and she has more customers. She also breeds guinea pigs. Julia has noted that one year ago she had six guinea pigs but now she has 58, which she sells to restaurants.



The partners need loans in different amounts. Some amounts are of 200 soles, 400 soles, 600 soles and 800 soles totaling a loan amount of 12,200 soles to the Banco Comunal. These loans will be invested in the purchase of baby clothes, pants, sweaters, cosmetics, tools, carbon stone, spare parts, transistors, integrated circuits, filters, fabric for ponchos for the Carnival celebrations, apples, bananas, papaya, shoes and products for the start of a small café and rental of premises.


They will use their savings to buy necessities for the home and education for their children. The partners’ dreams are that their businesses grow and are commercially great, to have their own premises and that their children are able to find better jobs.

El Banco Comunal Belén es un banco joven que se inició hace 1 año. Actualmente tiene 4 ciclos y 27 socias. Maritza, Hortensia, Juana, Eulogio y Felicitas son las socias fundadoras del Banco Comunal.
Las socias nos cuentan que en el Banco Comunal las socias aprendieron a ser puntuales, responsables, a ahorrar, y dicen que todas las socias son amigas y compañeras.
Las socias realizan diferentes negocios como la venta de comida, frutas, calzado, ropa, cereales, cosméticos, abarrotes, servicios de reparación de electrodomésticos y fabricación de herramientas agrícolas.
Cada socia tiene una historia diferente como es el caso de Hortensia que trabajaba en una tienda como empleada y a la vez viajaba a las ferias llevando ropa para vender. En un inicio llevaba muy poca mercadería, pero en la actualidad ella tiene más mercadería y surtida, y además, vende ropa de segunda mano.
Por otro lado Julia también vende ropa de segunda mano. En un inicio tenía muy poca mercadería, ahora su negocio ha crecido y tiene más clientes, además cría cuyes. Julia cuenta que hace 1 año ella tenía 6 cuyes pero ahora tiene 58 cuyes, que vende a los recreos y restaurantes.
Las socias necesitan diferentes montos de préstamos, algunos montos son de 200 soles, 400 soles, 600 soles, 800 soles, haciendo un total de 12,200 soles de préstamos en el Banco Comunal.
Los préstamos lo invertirán en la compra de ropa de bebé, pantalones, chompas, cosméticos, fierros, carbón de piedra, repuestos, transistores, circuitos integrados, filtros, telas para la confección de ponchos para las fiestas de carnaval, manzanas, plátano, papaya, zapatos, en productos para la implementación de un cafetín y en el alquiler de un local.
Los ahorros los utilizarán para comprar algún bien para su hogar y para la educación de sus hijos.
Los sueños de las socias es que sus negocios crezcan y sean grandes comerciantes, tener un local propio y que sus hijos sean mejores que ellas con una profesión.
