Adding to basket
Santos lives with his spouse and two children, both adults. His spouse is his financial dependent. He does not have relatives who live abroad. Santos has worked for 15 years making and selling hammocks. He learned the trade with the help of his family. He works with his spouse with a schedule of 6:00 am to 11:00 am and from 3:00 pm to 6:00 pm.
He is asking for a loan to be able to strengthen his business's inventory. He will invest in the purchase of silk and synthetic silk string, manguillos [woven loops for the end of the hammocks] and thimbles. In this way, he will be able to improve the hammock production. Santos expects that the sales of his product will increase and will generate more earnings for him.
His aspirations are to have a much larger business and to have financial stability.
