Juan Carlos
A loan of $800 helps to buy pigs, feed, banana waste products, and veterinarian supplies.
Juan Carlos's story
Juan is 29 years old and lives alone in a mixed-use family home. He is a farmer and one of his businesses is raising pigs which he started three years ago.
His goal is to continue growing in the number and the genetics of the pigs. He is asking for this loan to buy pigs for fattening and feed to fatten them up in the least amount of time to generate income for his daily livelihood.
Juan has not yet thought about having a family because he first wants to work to build up his assets so that he can have a good quality of life.
