ChilePan Vice President Esteban González said: “There is a product chain that is not to arrive and stop it. Not only from an economic point of view, it is also planning, organization, method, process.”
After the Government announced new health measures such as restrictions on displacement and trade closure over the weekend, the bakers’ association, ChilePan, expressed its displeasure with these rules. The guild’s vice president, Esteban González, said, “there is a product chain that is not to come and stop it. Not only from an economic point of view, it is also planning, organization, method, process.” While it’s only two days, and the impact may not be significant, these kinds of measures untimely announced will become permanent, it would certainly affect the entire chain in a very negative way,” he added. In this line, the association expressed concern about the prohibition of physical sales of essential trade such as warehouses. He argued that “bread has a high level of obsolescence and customer profile that is supplied in a neighborhood bakery or warehouse, does not necessarily have the payment tools to buy by delivery”. Finally, the guild was willing to be part of a working table with the Ministry of Health to contribute to health measures.
