From the meeting
UDAF recommended a revolving loan program to finance infrastructure, working capital, equipment, and market expansion for producers and food supply chain businesses. The concept would be administered with a lending partner and was framed as a way to fill financing gaps that existing loan programs do not cover. This is an early-stage financing vehicle that could support processors, co-packers, and distributors if funded.
No lender or capital partner was named.
