Julia Maya's story

Julia Maya and her family live in El Pollo, which is in the Portoviejo canton. It is a place that is surrounded by a lot of vegetation, and the people mostly devote themselves to field work and selling their products.

She is a hard-working woman who looks for the way to earn her resources and to use them to help her husband to get ahead. She has a store at her house where she is managing to improve thanks to the loans that she gets. For this she is very grateful.

She sells basic needs products, variety and stationery items, among other products. This way she is managing to satisfy the needs of her customers who come to her place daily. She always tends to them with a smile.

This loan is to buy rice, sugar, detergent, sausages, variety items and stationery products among others to stock her store.
