In an interview during Information, Publicity and Broadcasting Services Minister, Dr Jenfan Muswere’s tour of the factory, the company’s director, Mr Zhao Guisheng, speaking through an interpreter, Mr Austin Chiwawa, said: “We will be producing 20 000 tonnes of resin per year here. We will also be producing turpentine. As a company, we are going to be employing 2 500 people to run our production lines and that figure includes skilled and unskilled labour.”
All the products are to be produced from pine trees.
