A loan helped to buy more chairs, tables, and benches for his rental business.


Pedro Jose's story

Pedro Jose is 52years old and has an 8-year-old daughter. He is in a common-law relationship; his partner takes care of the house. They live in Manta, a lovely town known for its beautiful beaches which are much visited throughout the year.

Pedro is an enterprising man who enjoys earning his own money so that he can help his family get ahead. To do that he has his own business renting tables, chairs, benches, tents etc. He's been working in this business for several years, and it allows him to generate the income needed for his family and to continue growing the business.

He plans to use the loan to buy more chairs, tables, and benches.
