  2. They must be nuts… What we can learn from a cashew producer in India. Kala founded Sai Agro Industries, a cashew manufacturing and distribution company, 5 years ago in Pune, India. Sai Agro has $5M in revenues, employs 50 workers, and has the potential to scale even further—creating more jobs and community benefits. But Kala lacks access to the $1.25M needed to invest in a new processing facility to facilitate that growth.

  3. Sai Agro is not alone The “Missing Middle” presents a financial and social opportunity. The value of the gap in South and East Asia is $280-350 billion. 45-55% of formal SMEs in emerging markets do not have a loan but need credit. SOURCE: Beyond Profit
