Project scope and objective
The IIC seeks to grant a partial guarantee for Alquería's bond issue on the local market. Eighty-five percent of the proceeds will be used to replace borrowings, and the remaining 15% will be used to finance the expansion plan.
With this operation, the IIC will be supporting the development of the dairy industry in Colombia, as well as making it easier to access alternative sources of financing, such as the capital market. Alquería is the leading producer of extended shelf-life milk in Colombia and has more than forty years of experience in the dairy industry.
