Mayor Francisco Azcué toured the facilities of the Frigorífico Yuquerí, belonging to the Compañía Central Pampeana, located in Benito Legerén. “We came to convey the assurance that we want you to do well and for you to know that we are a facilitating State,” he remarked.
After holding a meeting with the company's production sub-manager Eduardo Gismondi, in which the Secretary of Productive Development, Federico Schattenhofer, and the Secretary of Urban Development, Alejandro López, participated, Azcué first highlighted the significance of the location where the meatpacking plant is situated because “it is the symbol of an era; a good part of our city's history is here, and seeing that work is being done here with investment from people who are betting on Concordia fills us with pride.”
That is why “we came to convey the assurance that we want you to do well and for you to know that we are a facilitating State, which creates conditions for you to continue investing. What we saw today is impressive due to the volume of production you have” but also “the growth projection,” reiterating the municipal administration's commitment to generate public policies that foster the growth of the private sector “so that they become more competitive and there are increasingly more sources of genuine employment.”
The mayor highlighted that the Tax Reform presented to the Deliberative Council is aimed at improving the relationship between the municipal State and taxpayers, as well as those who wish to come and invest, “so that it is simpler, more agile, and with a lower tax burden.”
“There are many factors that make our city return to being that thriving city it once was, and for that, it is necessary for the State to accompany and facilitate, and we are on that path,” affirmed Azcué.
GROWING
Eduardo Gismondi assured that “for 5 years we have not stopped improving, investing, and working with local people,” noting that they are currently at a production level of about one hundred tons of meat and bone, reaching the European and Chinese markets.
“This will double in six months,” he anticipated, and included the development of infrastructure works to be able to meet the market demands that are arising. “We are building a slaughterhouse, so in two years we will double the number of people hired,” highlighted Gismondi.
FACILITATING STATE
Federico Schattenhofer, Secretary of Productive Development, indicated that “behind the forestry industry and citrus farming, which are the pillars of the region, there are many important industries, and this is one of them. As soon as we began our administration, we saw the importance and projection it has, and we are working on the mandate given to us by the mayor for the State to be a facilitator of all these private activities, so they can generate genuine and quality work.”
The coordinator of Municipalities of the Uruguay Corridor, Luis Martín Dri, and members of the company took part in the activity.
