This savings and credit cooperative was founded more than 40 years ago in Cotacachi, in the northern Andean region. Here, 80% of the population lives in the countryside. Unión El Ejido offers loans to local entrepreneurs. They also have savings products and give training to entrepreneurs and farmers.
BRS supports Unión El Ejido with training and coaching. For example, Unión El Ejido employees can contact us for advice on audits, internal control, marketing and communication. BRS has already organised several project visits, workshops and webinars for this purpose.
