The major economic development of a country is generally located in its capital city. Cuba is no exception, with Havana being the commercial epicenter. Holguin, a province located more than 700 kilometers from the country’s capital city, celebrates thta its has been able to position itself among the regions with a good deployment of the non-state sector, despite the difficulties faced by traders, especially in terms of access to potential suppliers.
For the first time, a supplier marks the eastern part of the country as its commercial target and arrives in Holguín with quality proposals, affordable prices and facilities for new economic actors.
Nihao53 is a wholesale company belonging to Leke Holding Group, a Chinese exporter based in Havana, which has been providing services in Holguin for more than a year and has so far added some 15 businesses from our province to its portfolio.
Last Sunday, the Rincón de Romerías bar hosted a meeting of businessmen and entrepreneurs from Holguín with Lorena Gamoneda Padrón, commercial representative of Nihao53 in the provinces of Holguín and Granma, a propitious space to present their products (toilet, mobility, gastronomy, printing and sublimation), as well as machinery and mini industries.
In addition, a new line of gastronomic products was launched (sweet and savory cookies, instant Chinese soup and fruit salad) available in Cuba since last January and marketed under the brand Sabrosísimo; in addition, a line of condoms was launched with excellent customer reviews.
The event had space for networking, in order to expand the network of commercial contacts, where the particularities of the businesses in Holguin were known, as well as their needs and demands.
About this event, Lorena Gamoneda commented: “The Holguin market has a clear idea of expansion, knows what it wants to achieve with deadlines and times and puts concrete proposals on the table, to which Nihao53 wants to respond with new offers and opportunities”.
“It is a public prepared in matters of commerce and very rooted and defender of its roots,” she added. “This gives you the opportunity to work with a prepared market, which has had to face, unfortunately, geographic fatality.”
Another important moment of the day was the collaboration between Nihao53 and the Businessmen’s Forum (FOREMP), which will be held from April 28 to May 2 in the Guardalavaca beach resort.
From the perspective of a businesswoman, Idania Ricardo Leal, coordinator of FOREMP and partner of AdAstra, a Holguin commercial company, shared her assessment of the meeting:
“It was an exquisite space that served as a preamble for our event for entrepreneurs. It is an interesting proposal that can even serve to improve the offers in the territory of Holguín and have a positive impact on prices. Besides, it allows businessmen to get to know each other and look for solutions to the realities we have”.
Ni hao is a traditional Chinese greeting (“hello” in Spanish) and 53 refers to Cuba’s telephone code, so the company, with its brand, conveys a greeting to Cuba and its entrepreneurs and now, in a special way, to Holguin.
