About the project
A family of farmers started developing their raspberries farm in 2020 after establishing an agricultural company Freshmeridian, Lda. Now they grow berries in greenhouses, located in Sande, Marco de Canavezes. Because of the excellent soil conditions, the location has a great potential for abundant harvest - planting in its fullness will allow the harvesting of 30 tonnes of raspberries per year.
Since the company has only begun its activities in full operation in 2020, previously it focused on the preparations and planting. The company obtained EU subsidies to undertake the project, but it also extensively invested its own funds, resulting in a loss in 2020. The company's management, on the other hand, claims that 2021 was financially better for the company due to an improved sales process- Freshmeridian, Lda started working more with local customers, especially restaurants, as well as participating at municipal fairs, where the raspberries grown were sold. The expected turnover of the year is 40.000 €.
Now the company is borrowing to cover labor costs - the received funds will allow to hire more employees, so the managers will be able to focus more on commercial activities. After receiving loan and investing in company's operations, it is expected that a sales volume will reach 180.000 € per year.
Area of declared land: 2 hectares.
Annual interest - 13,5%
