Marco

Sector : Agriculture
Country : Peru
Town : Tarma
Loan Amount : $1,075
Marco, 23, is single. He lives with his mother, Valentina, 63, and with 2 of his 4 siblings: Marcos, 25 and Elizabeth, 20. They rent their house, which is in a pleasant town far from the city in the Peruvian mountains. He has been a farmer for the past 5 years; he grows potato, corn, peas and gladioli in several different colors. He owns his fields so he cares for them with much dedication and sacrifice in order to obtain good crops. Marco also buys about-to-be-harvested choclo (corn) crops and flowers to sell at market. His siblings Marcos and Elizabeth are his always-reliable helpers because they, too, want to provide their mother with a peaceful old-age. In addition, they plan to form their own families so they work hard to get ahead. What Marco likes best about his work is selling the products he grows because they produce good profits. As he, himself, states: “I have farming in my blood and in my memories, from that past time when my father taught me to love crops.” In the future, he would like to open a flower shop in a centrally-located place in the city to sell flowers daily in all their various varieties and colors. This is his first loan with MFP and he pledges to repay on time because he is grateful for the trust placed in him. Besides, he wants to have savings in order to reach his goals because by then he will have his own family. With the money requested, he will buy fields-worth of about-to-be harvested corn and flowers to sell in his city’s and the capital’s markets.

Marco es un joven trabajador de 23 años, soltero, vive con su madre Valentina de 63 años, y con 2 de sus 4 cuatro. Ellos son Marcos de 25 y Elizabeth de 20 años, su casa es alquilada y está ubicada en un apacible pueblo lejos de la ciudad, en la sierra peruana. Él es agricultor desde hace 5 años, siembra papa, maíz, arveja y diferentes colores de flores de gladiolo. Sus terrenos son propios, por lo que los cuida con bastante sacrificio y esmero para obtener una buena producción. Marco también compra siembras de choclo (maíz) y flores listos para cosechar y comercializar al mercado; quienes siempre lo ayudan son sus hermanos Marcos y Elizabeth porque ellos también desean darle una vejez tranquila a su madre. Además, ellos tienen pensado formar su propia familia, por eso luchan para salir adelante; lo que más le gusta a Marco de su trabajo es comercializar los productos que cosecha, porque obtiene buenas ganancias económicas: “ser agricultor lo tengo en la sangre, en los recuerdos, en aquel tiempo cuando mi padre me enseñaba amar los cultivos” refiere. En el futuro, le gustaría aperturar una tienda de flores en sus distintas variedades y colores, en un lugar céntrico de la ciudad, donde vendería a diario. Este es su primer préstamo con MFP y se compromete a pagar puntualmente todas sus cuotas, pues está muy agradecido por la confianza deposita en él. Además quiere ahorrar para cumplir sus planes, porque para entonces tendrá su propia familia, dice. Con el dinero que solicita comprará extensiones de terrenos de maíz y flores listos para cosechar y vender en el mercado de su ciudad y en la capital del país.
