A loan helped to buy agricultural inputs for growing bananas and cacao.


Jeison Valentin's story

Jeison is a 21-year-old entrepreneur who lives with his parents and a brother. He began working in the fields from a very young age. When he finished high school, he obtained a vehicle for cargo transport. He is also dedicated to agriculture and grows banana and cacao crops. His goal is to have his own land since right now he is farming his parents' land.

Jeison is asking for a loan to buy agricultural inputs that will allow him to produce good conditions for his banana production, with the aim of obtaining a quality product with a good market price. His future goal is to establish a home and an estate in order to have stability when he decides to start his family.
