The ministry’s representative in the province, Idael Hidalgo Cruz, said in recent comments that Villa Clara is cementing its place as the third-most important industrial province in Cuba, after Havana and Holguín. He spoke specifically of “important renewal” in local footwear production and said a tannery in the town of Caibarién, Tenería Patricio Lumumba, is now processing 80% of the hides Cuba produces.
