Víctor Tulio, 30, is married and lives with his son and his wife, who are his biggest priority. With his loan he expects to buy fertilizer and pay for labor to help grow coffee, and in this way guarantee that he will do a good job.
What he hopes for is to make the most of the good climate and soil conditions for this crop, and to put into practice his experience managing coffee. In addition, he wants to be able to buy the best products of the best quality so his crop has good and healthy growth and he has suitable production in the short term.
This is the first loan he has received from FUDECOSUR. Previously he had not had other loans from state banks, but FUDECOSUR has offered him a loan with better terms and a much lower interest rate.
