Motivated by what he observed at AMC Millwork in Pennsylvania,
Jose Rodrigo Carvajal returned to Guatemala and created an engineering department at millwork company
Manufacturas en Madera, which immediately generated two new jobs and new quality control processes. Bpeace Traveling Mentor Matt Wajda (in photo) traveled to Guatemala two weeks ago to help Rodrigo and team improve their veneering techniques and to recommend improvements in distressing methods and in the drawing and quality control of the firm's newest department.
When
Josselyn Coreas, sales manager and co-owner of
Pronavid in El Salvador, visited The Vitamin Shoppe in New Jersey, she learned what her company needed to do to create a CRM system. A year and a half later, Pronavid has installed a CRM and call center for its customers in both El Salvador and Honduras. The company also invested in an audiovisual department to create its own TV and radio commercials, thereby creating more jobs.
