Antonio Abel is 30 years old. He is single and lives in his parents' home in Noboa parish, a place of hard-working people who farm and raise cattle. Through this work, the locals are able to move forward with their families.
Antonio is a young man who is looking for a way to earn a living, to use his resources to help his parents, who have little money. Thanks to loans, Antonio has been able to open a pharmacy in his home. There, he sells medicines, diapers, and hygiene and personal products. He is also able to take payments for utilities, such as electricity, internet, and cell phones. Antonio has accounts for carrying out these transactions and he is able to earn for this service.
This loan will be used to buy medicines, personal items, diapers, and other products.
