Hugo is 43 years old, married and has a young son whom he is educating. He owns a humble wooden house. He is known as a responsible and hard-working man. Hugo does not have an education, but his people skills and desire to progress are abundant.
His livelihood consists of making dough for corn and cassava tortillas. His business is 3 years old, and this activity allows him to financially support his home.
Hugo requests a loan of $1,800 to buy bundles of corn, cassava, butter blocks, and buckets of eggs. With these supplies he will be able to make a greater amount of dough to reach more markets inside and outside the sector.
As a responsible father and husband, Hugo wishes to have sufficient financial stability to be able to meet each one of his family’s needs.
