Nicolás Prada opened Piragua Colombian Specialty Store to share his culture and cuisine with the community. Offering homemade Colombian dishes, retail goods, and 100% Colombian coffee, his goal was to provide a taste of Colombia.
After facing rejections from banks, Nicolás turned to Swoop for funding. “Swoop made my dream possible when the banks said no,” he says. With Swoop’s quick and easy loan process, he was able to open Piragua. The process was smooth and fast, with Swoop’s team providing ongoing support and guidance.
“In less than a month, I got the loan,” Nicolás says, praising the speed and ease of working with Swoop. Thanks to the funding, Piragua is thriving, and Nicolás is gearing up to grow the brand.
