A taste of high finance

A recent statewide partnership with Publix stores resulted in growing pains for the student-owned and operated Taste of Immokalee food products company based in Immokalee. With the opportunity to stock its sauces and salsas in 240 stores, the B-corp organized to teach business skills to students while benefitting its impoverished community sought the ability to finance the expansion, finding a partner in First Florida Integrity Bank, a supporter of the organization.
