Strengthening the economic and social importance of Mom & Pop stores
These micro-businesses are an essential part of social and economic life in Mexico. Yet Tenoli recognizes that many of these micro-businesses lie in a precarious situation – excluded from the formal sector and most public services and programs, and lacking access to the information, resources and opportunities needed to grow.
Our personal engagement and our interaction with the community.
Tenoli works hard to build a relationship of trust with a network of Mom & Pop stores. These relationships give the storeowners access to support, and the confidence to experiment and turn their businesses around.
The role played by the private and the public sectors in the inclusion and growth of micro enterprises
Tenoli is a native Nahuatl word, meaning ‘bridge’. This word was chosen as an reminder of Tenoli’s vision: to achieve economic inclusion by connecting microbusinesses with the public and private sector. We work directly with all of our Mom & Pop stores to provide them with the necessary tools and opportunities to foster their growth in a sustainable manner. Through this bottom-up, grassroots development, these Mom & Pop stores can fully seize their socio-economic role in the Mexican society.
Holistic solutions that are fair, accessible, and tailored to micro-business issues
