Did you know the Alaska Commercial Fishing and Agriculture Bank (CFAB) provides commercial financing up and down the supply chain of food, beverage and bio products in Alaska? We are thrilled to have CFAB join with Global Food
Collaborative and our members to create more and stronger businesses along the supply chain. This is big news!
Why? It's big news, because those harvesting or growing food are
unique businesses that often are not generally well understood by
conventional financial institutions. Now consider growers,
harvesters, manufacturers, etc. in Alaska and some of their seasonal
and geographic challenges! CFAB works exclusively
with these companies and has for the past 27 years - and because CFAB
operates as a cooperative, once you are accepted for a loan - you also
are actually a member of the cooperative!
