Ecuador
Please note: Due to the current economic and social instability in Ecuador, the country is experiencing record levels of regional displacement and migration. While this is not a pattern we are seeing across the country, it is worth noting that during this time your loans in Ecuador may be at more risk of delay or non-repayment.
Maycol is a dedicated farmer who supports his 10-year-old son through agriculture and poultry farming. He grows plantains and raises free-range hens, activities that have sustained his household for several years. He began at the age of 24 by renting half a hectare of land, later securing a loan to purchase his own plot. Today, he manages one hectare of plantain and a flock of hens, working hard to provide stability, education, and improved living conditions for his child.
Maycol earns approximately £434 per month from day labour, while his plantain and poultry business generates around £355 in monthly net profit. Household expenses total about £329 per month. Although production is steady, unstable market prices and limited access to technical training restrict the expansion of his enterprise.
Maycol has applied for a loan to fund the planting of one additional hectare of plantain, and to maintaining poultry sheds, thus strengthening production capacity and improving overall farm conditions.
