The Ministry of Industry and Commerce opened an office in Santiago de los Caballeros offering 20,000 jobs to interested parties.

The demographic target is the pool of former workers in the industrial free zones who have lost their jobs over the past year. The new jobs are located in the Program for Micro, Small and Medium-sized Businesses.

This good news was delivered by the Industry and Commerce Minister Melanio Paredes during a meeting with small business owners from the Cibao region, and held at the Wholesalers Association Club in Santiago.

The new office is in the provincial governor's building, and is open from 8am until 5pm. According to Paredes, "we are expecting to generate between 15 and 20,000 new jobs across the Cibao region."
