The trade fair is a steadfast letter of presentation for national and local manufactures, as there are huge potentialities in the territory. Furthermore, work is being carried out in the productive linkage and on perfecting the production of exportable items in order to obtain the necessary income for the progress of the region, she added.
The meeting will serve for Holguín to manage the increase in exportable funds and their potentials in the foreign market and trade, including the different variants of obtaining nickel, zeolite, ferrous and total scrap metals, bronze, copper, aluminum, charcoal, coffee, sugar, crooked tobacco, live angula and citrus fruits, among others.
