WEST BANGKA -- PT Timah's 48th anniversary celebration which was held simultaneously in the Company's operational area on August 2 brought blessings to MSMEs in West Bangka.
The reason is, that PT Timah's 48th anniversary celebration also held an MSME bazaar involving fostered partners in each operational area. The Processing and Smelting Division is no exception, as it has invited seven MSMEs to market their products.
The MSMEs involved include MSMEs that sell food, where the buyers are PT Timah employees located at that location.
This blessing was also felt by the juice trader Sonia whose turnover increased and was able to make a bigger profit than usual.
This woman who sells in Puput Mentok Village said that this was the first time she was involved in PT Timah's activities.
"Alhamdulillah, very happy. Because we were invited to this activity for the first time, we received blessings, we made three times the profit from trading in the village," he said
In the future, he hopes that PT Timah can involve him again in marketing its products so that it can have an impact on their economy.
"Of course, in the future, we hope to be involved again in every activity of PT Timah. Thank you PT Timah, Happy Birthday, I hope you continue to progress and continue to pay attention to MSMEs," he hoped.
Meanwhile, meatball trader Adi admitted that he was often involved in every PT Timah activity, according to him, activities like this could increase his merchandise turnover.
"I have often been involved, of course, I have received blessings from PT Timah's event activities. The profits are definitely bigger than the usual sales. Now two carts of meatballs are gone," said an MSME actor from East Java who sells meatballs in Kampung Jawa Mentok.
According to Adi, the presence of PT Timah revives the region's economy. Every time there is an activity in collaboration with MSME players.
"The economy feels alive because PT Timah always involves MSMEs every time it carries out activities. We get blessings through this activity. Happy Birthday, PT Timah, moving forward to help the community," he hoped. (*)
