Developing Energy, Efficiency And Industrial Safety With A Local Company In Zacatecas.
Es4trade de México is a company dedicated to the sale of electrical, domestic and industrial lighting equipment and safety equipment for industry and the mining sector.
Es4trade is another example of Peñasquito-driven business development.
In 2016, its director Alfredo Gallegos Espinoza, together with another partner, started this marketing company from scratch. With little capital and a small portfolio of clients, they sought out Peñasquito's bids to participate and improved their proposals until they were able to make a sale, which was followed by others.
Currently, 65% of their income comes from invoicing Peñasquito, which by being punctual in their payments has allowed them to apply for loans to invest in their business and grow, so that in 5 years, from 4 employees they started with, they now have 8 and soon expect to hire 2 more.
Alfredo Gallegos pointed out that most of the personnel they employ is through third parties, from whom they buy various services or products, seeking that they also be Local Suppliers to encourage trade in Zacatecas.
"As entrepreneurs you have to have vision and patience to be stubborn and persistent. If at the first time they say no, you have to go round and round so that one of those times they open the door and work hard so that the opportunity does not close," he said.
