Access to Capital for Entrepreneurs
Access to Capital for Entrepreneurs (ACE) is using HFFI financing to launch Georgia's Healthy Food Financing Initiative. This initiative will provide funding to food retail businesses like Nature's Own Herb Shop, Inc. and Super Mercado El Latino, which are both located in low-income census tracts. The aim is to bring or expand grocery stores in USDA-defined food desert neighborhoods in Atlanta and Hapeville, Georgia. You can find more information here.
