This investment will allow the cooperative to mass produce and market an organic honey wine that has been successfully tested over the last few years. This product represents a significant step forward for the business because it allows them to transform their basic commodity into a product with more value-added and substantially improved margins that has little competition within Central America.
In our first loan with this highly recommended group, we are providing financing to create a document services center in the offices of the cooperative which will generate income to help them cover administrative costs. We hope this small loan will lead to others, potentially an internet café.
