To earn a living, Justiniano engages in repairing bicycles and making trips using his vehicle. He learned by himself how to repair bicycles about 18 years ago, and he has succeeded in staying on the market thanks to his hard work. He is married, he lives with his wife and their two children, and his relatives help him economically from time to time.
He is requesting a loan to buy spare parts such as parches, tires and pedals to repair the bicycles. He works in a relaxed environment, with everything he needs at his reach; by strengthening his activity, he tries to increase his earnings so that his family can enjoy a better standard of living.
He wishes to succeed in rebuilding his house, to add another component to his business to have better chances to increase his earnings, to repay his debts and to keep on supporting his family.
