The Guyana Sugar Corporation (GuySuCo) yesterday said that all three of its grinding estates surpassed their weekly production targets for the week ending September 2, 2023.
In a statement, GuySuCo said that this production performance comes on the heels of both the Blairmont and Albion/Port Mourant estates surpassing their weekly targets during the 2nd and 3rd weeks simultaneously of the crop, while Uitvlugt is outdoing its target for the first time in this 2nd Crop of 2023.
The 2nd Crop of 2023 is in its seventh week of production and GuySuCo said that it is evident that the respective teams on the estates have capitalized on a number of strategies to boost workers’ turnout. These strategies, it said, included visiting the villages close to the estates to encourage former workers to return to the industry and help those who continue to work in utilizing the over $3 billion in new equipment bought by the Government of Guyana to support the field and factory operations.
