Capital has power. The question is: what kind of future is it building?

FairCapital was invited to the launch of IMPACTA Peru by the Ministerio del Ambiente - Perú. This initiative aims to mobilize nearly USD 3M to support 100 sustainable businesses and organic enterprises across Peru in 2026. FairCapital was represented by our local field advisor Sergio Cortez.

We are honored to be recognized among other impact investors in contributing to the growth of an ecosystem in which finance supports biodiversity conservation, sustainable production and inclusive economic opportunities.

Real transformation happens when governments, investors, entrepreneurs, and communities work together towards a shared vision for the future. Join FairCapital and be part of the movement driving capital towards positive impact.

The investment team in Cali is happy to welcome founding partner Christoph Gosdenoz to Colombia. At FairCapital, we believe in the importance of open exchange among all team members and sharing our different experiences.
Together, we advance our mission by confronting the realities on the ground in the Global South and by offering full transparency to our funders. We discussed governance challenges in smallholder farmer organizations, commercial pressure in sustainable supply chains, and the role that our financing solutions can play.

During our meetings, workshops and strategy discussions, we made sure to enjoy lots of exceptional coffee, too much chocolate and several other Fairtrade certified products - an everyday reminder of the communities and value chains at the heart of our work.

Fair trade needs fair finance

Today we celebrate the World Fair Trade Day and the power of fair trade to create more equitable and sustainable global value chains. At FairCapital, we know that access to fair and transparent financing is essential for smallholder farmers and cooperatives to thrive. Fair trade is a commitment to dignity, opportunity, and long-term impact.

On this World Fair Trade Day, we reaffirm our mission to mobilize capital that empowers producers and creates lasting positive change. Always trying to offer the best possible financing solution to the organizations creating these opportunities for the benefit of smallholder farmers.

More sales, more impact… but also a greater need for the right financial support

In March 2026, our partner and financial analyst visited Peru to connect with farmer organizations on the ground, who began shipping their new harvests to international markets.
2025 brought strong production and favorable prices, driving record sales. However, this growth also increased the need for working capital. To support those organizations, FairCapital expanded several credit lines to keep operations running and growth on track.
In 2026, we will continue to support smallholder producers in Peru with our financing solutions to ensure they can access fair prices for their products.

Real impact starts with real conversations

Our Regional Manager Vanessa Pino recently travelled to the Dominican Republic and visited Yacao, a subsidiary of Pronatec, to follow up on the progress of the current cocoa harvest. The visit gave the opportunity to connect directly with the management team, the people running the processing centers, and the representatives of cocoa producers organized in FUNDOPO. At FairCapital, these field interactions are essential. They allow us to better understand how financing translates into real impact along the value chain from harvest to processing and export. The visit was positive, and we are grateful to the teams at Yacao and FUNDOPO for their openness, time, and commitment.

What happens to coffee wastewater after processing?

Our partner Arthur Crespo recently traveled to Peru to meet with several investees in preparation for the coffee harvest season, which is starting earlier than usual this year.

At the Cooperativa Juan Santos Atahualpa, coffee producers are turning a challenge into a sustainable solution. When coffee is processed after harvest, the cherry surrounding the coffee bean must be removed. This process creates two main by-products: coffee pulp (the fruit skin and flesh) and “aguas mieles”, a sugary wastewater produced during the washing of the beans. Coffee pulp becomes organic compost, while aguas mieles, flow into infiltration ponds planted with vetiver grass. Vetiver has deep and dense roots that naturally filter and absorb organic matter. As the water slowly passes through these ponds, it is cleaned naturally before returning to the soil, reducing environmental impact.

A simple, low-cost system that protects soil and water and can easily be adopted by other producers. Through its financing solutions, FairCapital supports the cooperative in generating Fairtrade Max Havelaar premiums, which are used to strengthen sustainable coffee production.

Last week, the FairCapital Consumer Cooperative (Fair2C) hosted a successful lunch event together with Pakka, a Swiss company celebrating 20 years of empowering smallholder farmers in 2026. Their mission is to trade organic products fairly, by bringing them from their origin to the consumers. Their range of high-quality Fairtrade products includes different nuts, dried fruits, cocoa, and more.

The discussion focused on how to bridge the financing gap in fair and transparent supply chains – a critical barrier for many smallholder farmer organizations. This is where Fair2C comes in, connecting a growing community of impact investors to support Fairtrade-certified farmer organizations with tailored financing solutions.

During a recent visit to West Africa, our Partner and Chairman, Christoph Gosdenoz, spent time with investees and partners in Côte d’Ivoire and Togo at the height of the cocoa season.

Being on the ground offered important perspective, not just on market dynamics, but on the day-to-day realities smallholder farmer organizations are facing. Volatility of international market prices alongside policy frictions in main origins, create economic risks along the value chains, especially for those aiming to build long term partnerships at fair conditions. The conversations during our visits continue to inform how we think about long-term value creation, resilience and income diversification.

At FairCapital, improving access to financing in underserved regions remains central to our work. Staying close to our partners allows us to better respond to local needs and continuously refine solutions that support more inclusive and sustainable growth.
