Awards
Canary Award for Business Excellence
We are very proud to have received the Canarian Award for Business Excellence in its XI edition, in the category of Small Non-Industrial Business, awarded by the Ministries of Tourism, Industry and Commerce; and the Economy, Knowledge and Employment of the Government of the Canary Islands, from the councilor Elena Máñez of the latter, during the 1st Congress of the Industry of the Canary Islands CICAN2022.
We want to thank both ministries for giving visibility to the Canarian industry in this time of global uncertainty that we live in, which reminds us day by day of the importance of having our own strong industry to minimize external dependencies.
