Shoemakers idle in Ranchuelo
RANCHUELO, October 10 (Félix Reyes
Gutiérrez, Cubanacán Press
/ www.cubane.org) - Shoemakers in Ranchuelo
have been idle for two weeks, as managers
seek better quarters for them to work in.
The "Bienvenido Bermúdez"
factory, the only one in the municipality,
has seen production interrupted several
times before, typically for six to seven
months out of the year, for lack of raw
materials.
The government usually takes advantage
of factory down time to educate workers.
Workers at the "Bienvenido Bermúdez"
had been studying for two weeks before management
announced the decision to seek other quarters,
because the factory didn't have the lasts
they needed to produce the new models they
were to manufacture.
