Written by Evelyn Alas

As part of the strengthening of different economic units in the country, the Government of El Salvador through the Comisión Nacional de la Micro y Pequeña Empresa (CONAMYPE) together with the Fondo Especial de los Recursos provenientes de la Privatización de ANTEL (FANTEL), delivered non-refundable funds for projects that trigger the textile and apparel chain.

The main objective of these funds is to strengthen industrial production processes by providing access to non-reimbursable financial resources to acquire productive assets and increase production capacity.
