It was a great honor today for Camacol and its directors to have been part of Bauducco’s (a Trustee Member) ribbon cutting ceremony at which time they opened there doors to their new US headquarters and manufacturing facility. They will be adding close to 150 new jobs to our local economy and it with great pleasure that we thank them for allowing us the opportunity to have shared this moment with them.

I would personally like to thank those directors that were able to attend and provide support for this valued member as they shared their gratitude throughout the event. I would also like at this time to thank the office of Miami- Dade County mayor Carlos Jimenez, the office of Commissioner Jose Pepe Diaz who together presented a Certificate of Recognition to Bauducco on this date of August 10th 2016. I would also thank Representative Frank Artiles, our very own Commissioner Gort, Representative Janet Nunez, as well as the Port of Miami and the Vice Consul of Brazil for having supported both Bauducco and Camacol during this event.

I have attached some quick pics for those who were unable to attend.

Attached also some more pictures of the today’s ceremony!
