Jose Alfi wants to acquire a new loan. He is 67 years old, single, and currently lives alone. He wants this loan to buy supplies, fertilizers and manure he needs to provide assistance to his coffee crop. This will allow him to obtain a higher quality bean, so he can sell it at a better price in the market.
Jose Alfi hopes this investment provides his family a better quality of life and improved financial stability. He also wants to continue growing as a micro entrepreneur. This is the fourth loan he has received from Fudecosur. Even though he hadn't had prior loans with state banks, Fudecosur is providing him the loan with better terms and a much lower interest rate.
