A loan helped to purchase silk and synthetic silk string to produce hammocks and also pay labor costs.


Natividad De Jesus's story

Natividad is applying for another loan to get the financial resources which will serve him to boost his business. He also made this decision because, with the previous loan, he got good results. With the borrowed funds, he will purchase silk and synthetic silk string to produce hammocks and also pay labor costs.

He used the previous loan to stock his business's inventory, so he reduced the operating expenses and increased his profits. He has the same family group and has managed to achieve financial stability.
