More than 130 persons from bakeries, fast food outlets, hotels and other service providers in related sectors are expected to spend the day, today, further honing their baking skills at a Baking Seminar at the Marriott Hotel being hosted by the local National Milling Company of Guyana (NAMILCO) in collaboration with DeutscheBack of Germany under the theme. ‘A bright future in baking’.
The Seminar is part of an extended celebration of NAMILCO’s 50th anniversary of what the company in a media release says has been “quality service to Guyana.”
This activity will attract some 130 persons drawn from bakeries, fast food outlets, hotel and service providers as well as caterers.
NAMILCO says in its release that the event will also serve “to introduce a variety of puff pastry products and new varieties of baked goods” while attendees will benefit from “practical demonstrations and tasting.”
The company says that its initiative which seeks to further raise standards in the baking industry in Guyana is focused both on affording Guyanese access to higher quality baked products as well as to take account of the higher standards that will be expected of Guyana against the backdrop of new markets that will emerge out of “the rapidly developing oil industry.”
NAMILCO says that attendees can anticipate enlightening discourse on issues that will include changing trends in the global baking industry.
Managing Director of NAMILCO Roopnarine (Bert) Sukhai will bring opening remarks at the official opening ceremony this morning with the Guest Speaker being Captain Gerald Gouveia, Chairman of the Private Sector Commission who will declare the workshop open.
