Projected Material Handling Growth with New Cuba Relationship

Logo

Jonesboro, AR -- (SBWire) -- 01/16/2015 --As the market of Cuba opens in 2015 there will be a great pent-up demand for American made products. Material handling organizations poised to serve this new market located just 90 miles of the coast of South Florida are going to see significant financial gains.

Proximity matters. Flying in a variety of conveyor systems and dozens of strategic integration partners means that companies like Hytrol are uniquely poised to fulfill the market demand of the Cuban economy.

President Obama announced last month that opening diplomatic talks with Cuba offers the U.S. a chance to pursue a new strategy after decades of stalemate. More will be shared at the upcoming State of Union address (on Tuesday, January 20, 2015) about the rationale for the changing policy. The President said, "For 50 years, we've tried to see if we can overthrow the regime through isolation. It hasn't worked," he said. "If we engage, we have the opportunity to influence the course of events at a time when there's going to be some generational change in that country."

According to a fact sheet sent out by the White House, plans are to aid the fledgling Cuban private sector by authorizing the export of building materials for residential construction, goods for use by entrepreneurs and agricultural equipment for small farmers.
