Responsabilidad Social

RESPONSIBILITY SOCIAL

The agricultural sector represents 1/3 of the country's labor force.

SOLAGRO, through avocado, is committed to generating better conditions and opportunities in the communities.

SOLAGRO has opened two sub-packing plants in two municipalities in the interior of Guatemala. Which are managed, supplied and worked exclusively by the community.

SOLAGRO continues with its decentralization plan, expecting by the end of 2021 to have at least two more sub-packers.

SOLAGRO, with the obligation it has to the communities and the planet, opposes the irresponsible use of water resources, the application of synthetic herbicides and chemical fertilizers.

Guatemala is a country on the way to becoming an exporter in the Hass avocado industry.

SOLAGRO seeks to accelerate change, changing the way agriculture works and committing itself to sustainability in two dimensions: social and environmental.

According to data from the National Economic Research Center (CIEN), agriculture in Guatemala represents a third of the country's labor force. This statistic is even more alarming when one takes into account that 70% of the country's labor force works in the informal sector. Paradoxically, Guatemala concentrates most of its economic activity in the capital, Guatemala City.

The region of Guatemala where the avocado originates is one of the poorest, so SOLAGRO is committed to generating better conditions and opportunities in the communities.

To achieve this commitment, SOLAGRO has opened sub-packing plants in two municipalities in the interior of Guatemala, which, when managed, supplied and worked exclusively by the people of the community, promote formal work in that region.

SOLAGRO continues with its decentralization plan, expecting by the end of 2021 to have at least two more sub-packers and catalyze the Hass avocado industry.
