Abstract
The objective of this article is to identify the realities of financial management applied by the business units of the strawberry producing and marketing sector in the municipality of Sibaté, Cundinamarca, taking into account the relevance of regional development and the primary sector of the Colombian economy. At the methodological level, from a descriptive scope and a quantitative approach, 282 surveys were applied to managers and legal representatives of formally constituted companies with the aforementioned corporate purpose and geographic location. Among the main results, it is evident that these businessmen have important weaknesses in financial management and there are no elements within their practices that, from the financial management point of view, give value to their corporate purpose. It is concluded that the businessmen of the sector studied should keep in mind that adequate financial practices strengthen the business fabric, which generates wellbeing for the whole society through regional development.
