Project scope and objective

The purpose of the project is to establish a program that will provide financing in rural areas through a medium-term US$10 million loan to ALMER, a leading warehousing company, to support ALMER's purchases of grain for making tortillas. The company purchases grain from small farmers in Mexico's principal grain producing areas. This innovative facility that will support the food industry will give small farmers access to financing and foster development of the local capital market
