If the International Finance Corporation (IFC) loaned some US$ 20 million to a Brazilian shoe manufacturer so that it moved its facilities to the state of Ceará, it could help bring jobs and economic growth to a state which has rapidly diversified and enriched its economy. This US$ 20 million loan would allow the company to relocate and modernize its facilities, and would generate some 2,200 jobs in the state, helping to reduce unemployment and poverty.
