##### Empowering Local Entrepreneurs and Strengthening Communities in Callao

  Campaign:  [LATAM Growth](/news/campaign/latam-growth) Transforming trade goes beyond moving goods and connecting markets. It also means creating opportunities for local businesses and supporting the communities surrounding port operations.

Through its **Emprende program**, DP World supports local entrepreneurs in Callao, helping them develop the skills and resources needed to build sustainable businesses.

For Maricausas, a family-run restaurant in Callao, the program provided support to transform part of the owner’s home into a business, along with practical training on how to manage and grow it.

By investing in entrepreneurship and helping small businesses build a foundation for long-term success, DP World is contributing to economic opportunities that extend beyond the port and into the local community.

**Transforming trade means empowering local entrepreneurs and creating opportunities for lasting growth.**

[Watch the video](https://www.youtube.com/shorts/i5p1YwFP-ys) to discover how DP World’s Emprende program is helping Maricausas turn an entrepreneurial ambition into a business and build a better future for the family behind it.
