Isla de la Juventud has 109 businesses with four workers and more, who can potentially migrate to micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (MIPYME), as part of the improvement of the actors of the economy in Cuba.
Rolando Linares García, Director of Economy and Planning, told that the first sources of creation of MIPYME will be the current non-state businesses, characterized by their vocation for productive transformation, a clear comprehensive approach and more flexibility in management.
In the case of state-owned companies, they will have an ownership relationship with their Superior Organization of Business Management and not subordination, in this sense, the feasibility of incorporating some Base Business Units into this experience, including Urban Farm and Materials, was evaluated construction alternatives, he pointed out.
He specified that this process is carried out in an organized manner in the special municipality, professionals from global economic organizations have trained leading officials of political and mass organizations, members of the Municipal Assembly of People's Power, businessmen and non-state workers.
The issue has sparked intense debate and not a few expectations, especially in the non-state sector, in this sense, Alexander Marín Góngora is concerned about the non-existence of a wholesale warehouse or industry that provides raw material -through a legal contract- for constructive maintenance or investments.
From what I know, there is perspective if it is applied well, that design is a bit diffuse in the special municipality because the local economy is sustained by maritime cargo ships, I will wait for their progress, I am interested in migrating, this is an opportunity to contribute to the development of the territory, but it is a very big leap in the midst of a context set by the global crisis, said the also civil engineer.
José Luis Mangana Peralta, Coordinator of Programs and Objectives of the Municipal Administration Council, stressed that as in the rest of the world, the wholesale market in Cuba is out of supply due to the economic crisis aggravated by COVID-19 and worsened in the nation for the US blockade Unlike non-state workers, who can only operate within their municipality, those who are owners of MIPYME will enter into contracts with all the country's suppliers and can even access the foreign market to import the resources or raw materials they need, he clarified.
The official said that these owners will compete on equal terms with the rest of the economic actors, the prices of inputs will be the same for both state and private companies, as well as financial and tax obligations.
It was explained to the majority that the process will be gradual, open to interested parties from this September 20 until the same date in 2022, in that period those who wish to access this form of management, will be able to complete the forms available on a virtual platform through of the Youth Computer and Electronics Club network in the country, he said.
He noted that Decree Law 46, published in the Official Gazette in August of this year, limits MSMEs up to 100 workers, in the territory there may be an undetermined number of private businesses, but as a whole it will not exceed the total number of workers employed in the state sector, but we would be changing the essence of our social system.
