Global agricultural finance leader Evfarmer Capital Limited has announced a strategic partnership with multiple blackberry farms in Los Reyes, Michoacán, Mexico, one of the world’s leading blackberry production regions. As part of the agreement, Evfarmer will provide over $8 million in financing to support the farms in addressing critical challenges related to funding, technology, production, and sales.

Mexico is one of the largest blackberry producers globally, with Michoacán being the primary growing area. The state has approximately 10,000 hectares dedicated to blackberry cultivation, and this area is steadily expanding. Los Reyes, often referred to as the "Blackberry Capital," plays a crucial role in the region’s production, contributing significantly to the area’s output. The city alone boasts around 5,000 hectares of blackberry farms, producing 69,600 tons annually, which accounts for 40% of Michoacán’s total production.

The collaboration between Evfarmer and the Los Reyes farms aims to strengthen the region’s agricultural infrastructure, promote the adoption of advanced agricultural technologies, and improve the sustainability and efficiency of production processes. This initiative will also expand farmers access to global markets and help meet the growing global demand for blackberries.

“This partnership marks a significant step in our commitment to empowering farmers and investing in the future of global agriculture,” said senior management at Evfarmer in an interview. “By providing critical financial support and technical expertise, we aim to ensure that Los Reyes continues to thrive as a global leader in blackberry production.”

Evfarmers investment in Michoacán’s blackberry industry aligns with the company’s broader mission to provide sustainable, innovative financing solutions for large-scale agricultural operations while fostering growth and market expansion in key global agricultural regions.
