I want to show my gratitude with work, with effort, that is why we have to redouble our efforts”, said Diego Sinhue Rodriguez Vallejo.
The Secretary of Sustainable Economic Development, Ramon Alfaro Gomez, recognized the work of this economic sector, highlighting the efforts of families in the tianguis and markets.

This program has directly impacted the increase in the number of customers and the increase of new customers, and therefore an increase in sales and an increase in income.
