A loan helped to buy products to make longaniza (long pork sausages).


Eva Gissella's story

Eva Gissella and her family live in the city of Portoviejo, a place with wonderful countryside and beaches, and with a varied cuisine that tourists love when they visit this beautiful city.
Eva Gissella is a hard-working woman who finds a way to earn an income to help with her study expenses and also to help her family get ahead. She does this with the help of loans. Together with her parents, she makes and sells longaniza. This is a typical dish enjoyed by her customers who come to buy it from her home. Her father also takes them to sell to restaurants and local shops that place orders because their delicious products are home-made; this is why their customers prefer to buy from them.
This loan is to buy products to make long pork sausages.
