Indigenous agriculture and food

Support for Indigenous entrepreneurs in agriculture

As Canada’s leading agriculture and food lender, FCC is proud to provide on and off-reserve financing and resources to Indigenous entrepreneurs, economic development corporations and First Nations communities. Building a diverse industry is top priority and an integral part of FCC’s mandate. First Nations, Métis and Inuit have always been involved in agriculture and food and are uniquely positioned to reclaim their food sovereignty and grow successful businesses. FCC has lending, products and services to help you, your business and your community fully realize your goals. In addition to agriculture activities, we’ve also expanded our eligibility to include traditional Indigenous harvesting from natural sources.
