Isidro Jose's story

Isidro is a micro-entrepreneur who is 46 years old, married, and the father of four children.

Isidro lives in a rural village where, many years ago, he started growing vegetables with instructions from his father, who also bequeathed properties to him for his possible independence at a later time.

This micro-entrepreneur has turned to the loans from Kiva with the support of MiCredito to buy quintals of soil amendments, minerals, fertilizers, and foliar sprays to apply to his crop of onions. Isidro dreams of selling his merchandise at better markets.
