📋 Tender Overview
On Wednesday, October 9, the Regional Government of Ucayali brought out the best in regional production through eight routes, including the Generation of added value: wood route, which showed the ambassadors of the GCF Task Force the process of collection, primary transformation and the different products obtained with the second transformation, such as quality school furniture. Regarding this experience, Governor Manuel Gambini said that the main objective is for visitors to learn about and support the initiatives of his administration, which seek to strengthen the MSEs in the wood sector.
Gambini, together with the regional manager of Social Development of the GORE Ucayali, Rocio Villavicencio, visited the Educational Institution No. 64096 - Puerto Callao, located in the district of Yarinacocha, which received 881 modules of school furniture from the regional government. In this educational center, the exhibition of the prototype of school furniture made in the second transformation of wood was held, by SMEs such as Nii Biri and Shinanti, locals that were also visited during the tour.
The idea is to make visible the work that is being done in Ucayali with the transformation of wood, and that some interested institution helps us to provide technical assistance to the Ucayali SMEs dedicated to this area, so that they compete with national and international companies. Improving the regional economy means improving the quality of life of people, Villavicencio urged.
Governor Gambini, in the presence of the primary school students of Puerto Callao, highlighted the importance of the school furniture project that he has been developing. Now, with great responsibility, we are working hand in hand with the SMEs, giving added value to wood and giving them job opportunities with the elaboration of school modules, added the regional authority.
It should be noted that, during the demonstration of the timber route, the port and the Valentina & Nathaly primary transformation centre were also visited, as well as the CITE Forestal, where rational and sustainable use was demonstrated, reinforcing forest governance through alliances between entrepreneurs, indigenous communities, small producers and other actors.
