Carlos is a young man who has high hopes of getting ahead and who wants to support his mother and younger siblings. Years ago, his father transferred this metal construction shop to him, and today he offers multiple services, that is to say, both metal and woodwork. With the earnings he receives after a hard day's work, he contributes to sustaining his family. Because of the quality of work that he does, he has contracts for the construction of roofs. He is requesting a loan to be able to acquire a larger quantity of supplies with the goal of fulfilling his orders from his customers.

Realiza con más eficacia la fabricación de muebles.
 
Entrepreneur: Carlos
Location: Location Undisclosed, Peru

Con el préstamo que solicitó Carlos compró materiales para la fabricación de muebles de metal mecánica que realiza en su taller. Para Carlos fue muy importante este crédito ya que ahora trabaja con eficacia sus muebles y cumple con la demanda del cliente y eso favorece bastante en el prestigio de su microempresa. El haber accedido a los créditos de Microfinanzas PRISMA fue de ayuda y eso se lo debe a las gente de que dio su préstamo ya que contribuyó en el desarrollo de su trabajo. El anhelo de Carlos es que soliciten sus servicios por parte de las instituciones y así crecer su negocio e implementarse de más equipos.
