Project scope and objective

The
objective of the Project is to improve the Company’s cash flow by alleviating
its financial burden and improving its debt profile. The Project consists of
(1) debt refinancing and (2) working capital financing. Toward this end, two
loans ("A" and "C") are proposed, each having different characteristics, to
address to the firm’s principal financial needs.



Provide
long-term financing:
Sources of
long-term financing are scarce in Nicaragua. The operation will meet two of the immediate needs
of Avícola La Estrella, S.A. ("La Estrella" or "the Company"), i.e.,
refinancing short-term debt and meeting working capital requirements.



Support
an industry with a high value-added component:
The chicken production process includes hatching,
grow-out, processing, and distribution. In addition, "the Company" has
incorporated the production of feed for its own use, the production of chicken
byproducts, and the production of eggs for human consumption into its process.



Strengthen
a medium-size company:
The Project
will help "the Company" adapt to ongoing growth and achieve its full potential,
thus conserving many jobs.



Generate sales for small and medium-size enterprises:
"The Company" is an important local buyer of commodities such as grains and
meal. It also purchases packing materials and other production inputs.
