Payment schedule

Established in 2012 with 5 Ha of farmland in Vale Mondego, the company gained expertise in growing ecological production. Having needed certificates and using sustainable practices, the farm sells its' production for a higher price and also gets more subsidies from the government. You can learn more about the farm in a special video from our visit below.


Over the years, the farm expanded and now has 50 ha of arable land while hiring 6 full-time employees and more workers to face the needs of peak seasons. As an organization committed to continuous improvement, Foz dos Aromas, Lda has consistently invested in equipment and production processes to ensure the highest standards of quality and sustainability.

The farm specializes in the production of aromatic and medicinal herbs such as mint, lemon balm, marjoram, savory, thyme, French tarragon, and lemongrass. Foz dos Aromas, Lda has positioned itself as a specialist in this niche market. With a primary customer, "L'Herbier du Diois," a French distributor, the company has established a strong market presence.

With this loan, Foz dos Aromas, Lda intends to expand its herb production and increase its productive area by approximately 5 hectares. This expansion will enable the company to meet the growing demand for its products and further solidify its position in the market. With this strategic investment, the company aims to continue its growth trajectory and strengthen its position as a reputable and innovative organic farm.

This is the first of the 2 projects to finance. The farmer pledges the 1.96 ha of agricultural land worth 137 081 € for both two loans. Value of the assets to be pledged by the Project Owner for this project is 80 375 €. According to the asset valuation report, the pledged asset has a valuation of 7 € per sq.m., higher than other land plot due to the fact that the pledged asset has confrontations with a road and given its size, the land plot has constructive capacity.

The company has fully repaid two loans with HeavyFinance with a total amount of 58 750 €, and currently has three active loans with an active balance of  127 652 €. The HeavyFinance investor community has already earned 19 644 € of interest in total.
