Janet lives in the village of Ricardo Palma, a small rural community of coffee-growers located 9.0 km from the city of San Ignacio, Peru. Janet, 33 years old, lives with her 2 children. Her principal business is the production and sale of organic and fair trade certified coffee with excellent quality and good flavor to her cooperative Cenfrocafe. She has dreams of increasing the area of coffee which will allow her to save up enough to offer her children a higher education.
Janet is considered a very hard-working woman with desire to continue improving herself. She is knowledgeable of coffee cultivation. She knows that this loan, well used, will give her the opportunity to improve her business, increasing the yield with fertilization, planting 1000 new plants, and carrying out the weeding well.
