A loan helped to buy merchandise.


Pedro William's story

Don Pedro is 43 years old and lives in San Rafael Oriente in the department of San Miguel. He sells clothing and medicine and lives with his wife and children, ages 12, 9, 8 and 5, who are all financially dependent on him.

He learned his business while working as a sales representative for a company. He later decided to set up his own business. He has no fixed working hours but is very experienced in sales activity. He currently needs to buy more merchandise to increase his inventory of products and meet customer demand for quality goods.

Pedro plans to pay back the loan on time. He hopes to increase business and eventually set it up in a stable location so customers can go there whenever they like.
