ALIET GREEN

Aliet Green produces organic, Fair Trade coconut sugar and other food products. As a woman-owned business with a focus on empowerment, over 70% of the employees are female and a majority are single mothers or widows. Aliet Green sells products at a premium price and pays its farmers a living wage. The 1,300 employees ensure high environmental standards by living and working on naturally forested farmland that absorbs more carbon than is released. Beneficial Returns approved Aliet Green a $350,000 loan to support the creation of another production line.
