Project scope and objective
The Company is a fruit and vegetable agro-export company, specifically in grapes, asparagus, avocados and blueberries, for which a Senior Loan for up to US$160 million will be structured to be granted as follows: (i) IDB Invest for up to US$50 million; (ii) Interbank for up to US$60 million; and (iii) BBVA for up to US$50 million. The uses of financing funds are: (i) US$110 million for investments in the expansion of the Company's operations in Peru and its internationalization in Colombia; and (ii) US$70 million to refinance the existing debt, mainly the exposures of Interbank and BBVA to homogenize terms and conditions with the new financing. Additionally, an uncommitted tranche of up to US$20 million from IDB Invest is included for new investments in Colombia in the 2022 and 2023 years.
