The Bianco Family announces the special bonus at the traditional Christmas greeting toast. The Soavegel and Soave Group, Brindisi-based companies that have been operating in the food sector for more than 90 years, in order to give concrete support to its employees in dealing with the ongoing price increases, will provide a refund of the consumption of the last electric bill. The measure affects about 170 employees, and the amount will be released in the December accruals to all employees who submit their last electric bill. “We have instituted a special bonus for all our employees as a measure to protect their purchasing power at this special time. We have thought – Domenico Bianco, Soavegel CEO, tells us. – to give them an award equivalent to the last electric bill they paid. We will invite them to produce the copy of the bill, which will be settled in their December paycheck. We want to come to the aid of those who are most tested by this economic situation: it would have been easier to put a single, equal premium in their paycheck, but,” he explains, “we want to come to the aid of those who need help the most. Instead, in this way, we will put in the paycheck the exact countervalue of what is spent. We think it is a concrete measure, Domenico Bianco continues, moreover at a very difficult time even for companies like ours, which from one year to the next have had to suffer aggravations of more than even a million euros for energi a”. “It was only through teamwork,” adds Domenico Bianco. – to the efforts of our workers, if we have been able to afford this kind of support: we have about 170 employees, this is a major effort, which is a stimulating and thankful occasion in this difficult time. We kept this initiative under wraps because we were pleased to communicate it live to everyone during the traditional Christmas greeting toast “. The group continues on the path of growth, forecasting a positive balance sheet closing by 2022, as well as the search for and induction of new professionals into the workforce.
