Increasing Productivity

1 June 1959

At the "La Lorena" plant in Masaya some 300 pairs of shoes are turned out daily by the 120 employees who were trained at the plant. This represents a considerable increase in production for this shoe factory and was accomplished with technical advice on methods and semi-automatic devices from the International Labour Organization (ILO).
