Who is our customer
Machu Picchu Foods SAC (MPF) is a cocoa originating, processing, and chocolate manufacturing company established in 2000 in Lima, Peru. As the company's operations have grown they have also moved into more value-added products such as cacao derivatives and chocolate processing. The company is now fully dedicated to the cacao segment, where it is a strong niche player with key strategic relationships locally and abroad. MPF has become the largest player in cocoa origination and an important player in chocolate production in Peru.
What is our funding objective?
FMO provided a US$10 million senior loan to Machu Picchu Foods. These funds will be used for capex investment and working capital (US$8 million) and for the financing of farmers (US$2 million).
Why do we fund this investment?
By financing approximately 10% of MPF's balance sheet and being the first international long-term debt provider, FMO plays an important role in the growth of the company. This investment also contributes to inclusive development in Peru by supporting the company's cocoa sourcing operations from smallholder farmers.
