A loan helped to purchase an air compressor.


Yeison Arley's story

At 35 years old, Yeison is a charismatic and active man who is always willing to help out. He has a civil union and lives in Medellín, where he has built his own business of maintaining and repairing motor vehicles through hard work.

For several years, he has dedicated his life to working in a body shop and painting cars and motorbikes. His commitment to quality and customer satisfaction have made him a reference point in his community. However, to keep growing and responding to the growing demand, he needs to go a step further.

Today, Yeison is looking for assistance to acquire an air compressor that will allow him to optimise his work, reduce paint waste and offer more professional service. This tool will not only increase his earnings but also elevate the quality of service that he provides to every customer that puts their trust in him.
