One of the Company’s most significant social programs developed through Fundacion Petaquilla, is the implementation of Production Modules. These serve as mechanisms to foster community productivity by promoting a more varied economy and sustainability. This is achieved by assisting people with ventures that will provide for a livelihood beyond subsistence farming, identifying more effective and efficient manners of production, and transferring the use of new technology.
Main Production Modules:
Purchases for Promoting Production: It is oriented to assist families or small groups to commercialize their products.
Buying handmade hats from local producers of El Harino and San José del General communities.
Buying tamales, a local homemade product, from Mrs. Doris Hernández of the El Guabo, Piedras Gordas community.
