Mansfield highlighted the challenge of consolidating mining suppliers in Salta

The expansion of mining activity in Salta creates opportunities for the provincial business sector, though it also raises the need to improve its capacity to respond to growing sector demand.

Facundo Huidobro, of Mansfield, emphasized that local participation should not be limited to suppliers' geographic origin. According to his position, companies must demonstrate they have the necessary capabilities to provide goods and services to the industry.

The argument is linked to a growth phase in Salta's mining sector, which could expand the space for local companies within the supply chain. To capitalize on that opportunity, advances in professionalization, standards compliance, and operational capacity will be necessary.

The consolidation of competitive suppliers thus emerges as one of the challenges associated with provincial mining development. Strengthening that network would allow a larger share of economic activity linked to projects to remain in Salta.
