According to Anshun Daily news: Recently, the reporter walked into Guizhou GuizhiWei Food Co., Ltd. located in Shuijing Village, Huachu Town, Puding County, and the company's display cabinets were neatly arranged with dried prickly pears, potato chips, bobose and other products. Outside the processing plant, trucks full of products are ready to leave for major supermarkets in Guiyang, Anshun and other places.
The reporter followed Gong Qiong, a manager of Guizhiwei, to the production line of Bobo sugar, and saw that the workers were busy soaking, steaming, fermenting, pressing, boiling, pulling sugar, puff pastry, weighing, packaging, etc.
"We don't produce a lot of bobose, at least more than 500 catties a day. Since the trial production of potato chips began in October 2020, as long as the machine is turned on, more than 10 tons of fresh potatoes are used every day for production. Gong Qiong introduced.
Gong Qiong told reporters that she began to work in Guizhiwei in 2014, and worked in Zhejiang with her husband before coming to the company, far from home. Because I couldn't stand homesickness, I went home, and when I heard that the company's income was still good, I followed my fellow villagers to work. Gong Qiong began as an ordinary worker, packaging products on the production line, earning 2500 yuan per month.
"Now I am promoted, I have become an administrator, and I have an income of more than 4,000 yuan per month." My lover is here to specialize in delivery, with a monthly income of more than 5,000 yuan. Gong Qiong said that she is still very grateful to this enterprise for entering the mountain village, not only the two couples, but also many villagers in Shuijing Village who have no way out before can work in the factory to achieve nearby employment and obtain a stable income. In addition to factory processing personnel, the company also dispatched sales personnel to Wal-Mart, RT-Mart and other major supermarkets to carry out promotional activities, driving more than 70 people in Shuijing Village to increase their income.
It is understood that Guizhiwei Company currently has a total of 4 production lines, producing about 8 varieties of food. The output value in 2019 reached more than 20 million yuan, and in 2020, due to the impact of the epidemic, the output value has declined. But the company said it is expected to increase its output value this year, because since the potato chip equipment was put into trial production in October last year, it has earned nearly 3 million yuan.
Because of the large demand for raw materials for potato chip production, at present, the company is exploring the way of "company farmer cooperative", that is, Guizhiwei company buys seeds and distributes them to cooperatives in nearby villages, villagers plant, until the planting is mature, the company makes acquisitions, not only to drive industrial development, but also to drive more people around to increase their income.
