A loan helped to buy medium-sized pigs, fodder, and phytosanitary products to raise the pigs successfully.


Herinosy's story

Herinosy is a young man who is 32 years old. He is married and the couple has two children. He rents an apartment on the outskirts of the city. He began raising pigs approximately five years ago and his partner works in a free export company.

Herinosy has partnered with Vahatra and was able to increase his financial capital with the profits he acquired from a previous loan. He would like to increase the size of his flock to augment his profits. After several months of fattening, he will resell his pigs to local butchers. He needs the backing of Kiva's lenders to finance this project. He will buy medium-sized pigs, fodder, and phytosanitary products needed to raise the pigs successfully. Herinosy plans to build his own house in the future.
