1 Healthy Food Enterprise Microlending Intermediaries Los Angeles County Proposal Guidelines I. OVERVIEW The California FreshWorks Fund (FreshWorks) is announcing the availability of $137,500 in loan capital, as well as technical assistance resources, for qualified intermediaries to support microlending to healthy food enterprises that reach families with small children throughout Los Angeles County. Earlier this year, FreshWorks deployed over $2MM in capital into lending intermediaries serving Los Angeles communities. This RFP is to deploy the program s remaining capital. The Food Enterprise Microlending Intermediary (FEMI) program represents a joint investment of the FreshWorks Fund and First 5 Los Angeles. Healthy food enterprises include any producer, processor, distributor, or retailer of food inventory that includes a high percentage of perishable or healthy food. Targeted enterprises include, but are not limited to: small community markets; meat or fish stores; corner or discount stores; take-out restaurants; street vendors; mobile markets; farmers bringing goods to market; value-add processors; produce distributors, food vending machines; CSA networks; or other innovative forms of distribution or retail that focus on healthy food sales. In addition to direct lending, FreshWorks provides capital to qualified LA County intermediaries who are connected to their communities and capable of providing small bursts of capital to local healthy food entrepreneurs. Our investments are intended to improve the County s capacity to microlend and assist food enterprises as a means of increasing the diversity of healthy food distribution and retail outlets. We are particularly interested in increasing access to healthy foods for working class families with small children ages 0-5. II. ELIGIBLE APPLICANTS FreshWorks is seeking to invest in intermediaries who demonstrate the ability to recruit, capitalize, and support a pipeline of healthy food enterprises located in, or delivering healthy food to, underserved communities within LA County. 1
2 We are not seeking a specific type of intermediary. Eligible applicants may be forprofit entities (including but not limited to corporations, lending institutions, cooperatives, LLCs or partnerships), not-for-profit corporations (including but not limited to community development corporations, community development financial institutions, university departments, public health and/or food advocacy organizations), or public entities (including but not limited to counties and cities, public health or economic development departments, school districts, business improvement districts, or other public or quasi-public agencies). FEMI investees must demonstrate experience or interest in healthy food retailing and small business development, as well as capacity to successfully support food entrepreneurs in underserved areas of LA County. An ability to manage capital, assist businesses, and repay debt is required. FEMI investees must have a plan of how to support end-borrowers with direct technical assistance, both for general business consulting and food/retail-specific consulting, in order to increase the likelihood of sustainable business ventures. A network of resources will be made available by FreshWorks for those who do not possess in-house technical assistance capacity. FEMI investees must have a plan to assess end-borrowers for their potential to reach families with young children (ages 0-5). Consulting resources will be made available by FreshWorks for end-borrowers who require assistance in marketing to this customer segment. Intermediaries will be responsible for, and required to report upon, this connectivity as part of a post-program evaluation. III. FUNDING LEVELS FreshWorks seeks to award capital investments totaling a minimum of $137, 500, in the form of low-interest loans, to qualified applicants. Capital Investment Terms: Awardees will receive a loan, payable in three (3) to five (5) years, to the CA FreshWorks Fund. Each loan carries a fixed interest rate of 3.25%, which will accrue and be fully paid along with loan principal at maturity. Loan terms will depend upon the targeted borrowers and loan products being offered by intermediaries. Loans are full recourse to the awardee. Upon a finding of good performance, a partial loan forgiveness of 25% of the total capital investment may be issued by FreshWorks. 2
3 Technical Assistance: Awardees will also have access to a FreshWorks Technical Assistance Fund, specifically capitalized for this program. TA funds will be deployed to support end-users with direct technical assistance. Eligible TA uses include, but are not limited to, general business consulting (business planning, accounting, legal review, marketing) as well as food/retail consulting (food handling, procurement, permitting, etc.). IV. USE OF FUNDS Funds are to be used to finance business startups, expansions or conversions that result in increased healthy food offerings to underserved communities. Funded activities may include, but are not limited to: construction; equipment purchase; inventory purchase; permits and licenses; and working capital. Past a reasonable loan fee and/or rate spread, intermediaries shall not capitalize their internal program costs into end-borrower loans. Intermediary staff costs such as program overhead, in-house consulting, or other administrative costs are not approved uses of loan funds. Should intermediaries choose to deploy the funds as grants or forgiveable loans to end-users, such a use of funds is permitted. Regardless, the loan capital must be repaid by the intermediary to FreshWorks according to the terms of the loan agreement. Applicants are expected to finance enterprises located in, or supplying, underserved areas. These are areas defined as low/moderate income census tracts where there are limited outlets for fresh food, such as supermarkets. Enterprises should also be positioned to sell healthy foods to families with young children. FreshWorks can confirm whether enterprises sit within or serve an underserved area. There is no minimum size of a microloan to an end user. Each award should fund at least two (2) enterprises per $50,000 of loan award. To the extent possible, a pipeline of potential healthy food enterprises should be identified and submitted with an intermediary s proposal. V.
