Cristopher Ernesto and his family live in Montecristi, which is known for handicrafts made from straw, wicker, reeds, and wood; fine hats made from straw, known in the world as a "Panama Hat", known throughout the country and outside of it.
Cristopher Ernesto is a business person who sells a variety of seafood, which he buys at nearby beaches where he buys the seafood from the fishermen. He then takes it to his house where he cleans and weighs it for packaging and then he sells it by the pound. He works in sales Monday to Saturday and offers his products in restaurants, stores, fish markets, and homes. He leaves the merchandise with his customers on credit and collects payment every 8 days.
This loan is to buy fish, shrimp, squid, and bags for packaging, and to pay for the electricity, etc.
