MSMEs are an opportunity to improve the economy in Cienfuegos
27 Oct 2021

These are Servimav (gardening and related maintenance services), San Francisco (manufacture of bakery products and their derivatives), Parque Alto (manufacture of paints, varnishes and coating products) and Tropical Jagua (commercialization of agricultural products). On the other hand, in the Platform of Economic Actors, created by the Ministry of Economy and Planning (MEP), there are 20 requests from people and entities from Cienfuegos interested in establishing themselves as micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs). Surina Milanés Fernández, MEP specialist in the territory, explained to the Cuban News Agency that these requests are in different review processes and eight of these are related to food production. The rest, she said, will be dedicated to the construction, restoration and maintenance of buildings, the manufacture of metal products, the production, purchase and benefit of charcoal and computer consulting. She added that these businesses, for the most part, will be instituted as a reconversion of pre-existing business activities - self-employed or local development projects - and only a few will be newly created. Becoming a mipyme or a non-agricultural cooperative (CNA) has many incentives, first because of the legal personality, with which they can make contracts, as well as the possibility of exporting and importing through companies based in Cuba for that purpose, said Milanés Fernández . In the same way, she added, these actors can request credits in national currency, in addition, the Central Bank of Cuba recently approved Resolution 249, which allows financing credits in foreign currencies to MSMEs and CNAs. These actors constitute a possibility for the socioeconomic progress of Cienfuegos, since the number of companies of this type will increase to strengthen capacities in the municipalities and new jobs will be created.
