This aspect has proved of particular interest to a lot of you especially in the employment of disabled people. Our policy is to manufacture IN each country FOR each country, so EVERYONE involved-in manufacturing, administration and sales-will be local.
For every 1,000 lamps produced weekly in each country, we will need another 6 assemblers. But it’s in sales where we can create the most jobs. The best way to do this is not to sell to shops (that needs few salespeople) but to sell direct to householders. In fact, we will need salespeople in virtually every village of any size.
If we sell to only 2% of households, we would need a total of 20 Head Office and assembly staff, and 105 salespeople. If that’s all we do that’s not bad, but a more likely figure is 10%, giving employment to 625 people.
We are very grateful to Steve Crane for creating our website free, at www.juataa.co.uk Have a look at it because it is powerful, and a MUCH easier way for you to help us get the message out to as many people as possible before Christmas. Just give them the link.
What does that mean in real terms? Take Uganda, where we are manufacturing now:
