A loan helped to buy gillnets for his fishing work.


Jose Efrain's story

José is 57 years of age. He only studied in primary school. He is in a relationship, and his partner is a homemaker. His children are no longer his dependents.

José has been doing artisanal fishing for many years, and he learned this work due to the fact that he lives near the beach and it was easy for him. He does not have a defined schedule for doing his work.

He will use this loan to buy gillnets for his fishing work.

José wishes to have different types of implements to make his fishing work easier.
