Resumen
A partir del año 2007 se desarrollaron Negocios Inclusivos en el Ecuador, a través de alianzas entre empresa ancla privada y pequeños productores agrícolas, incluidos a su base de proveedores. También se desarrollaron Proyectos Público-Privados basados en la Cohesión Social para la generación de valor en las cadenas productivas. El objetivo de este estudio es evaluar la potencialidad de la cadena del bambú del Cantón El Empalme para generar Negocios Inclusivos, para lo cual se evaluaron dos modelos asociativos y se realizó un análisis teórico comparativo entre iniciativas de fortalecimiento para esta cadena y casos de éxito de negocios inclusivos en nuestro país. Dentro de los principales hallazgos se cuentan proyectos desarrollados en esta localidad que no diseñaron una estrategia definida para la sostenibilidad del proceso asociativo; no obstante, la cadena del bambú del Cantón El Empalme cuenta con un enorme potencial para la generación de negocios inclusivos ya que los habitantes de las zonas donde crece el recurso conocen sus propiedades y características de uso, además esta especie de bambú es una de las más demandadas a nivel nacional e internacional, por lo que existe una gran oportunidad de impulsar el oficio de la elaboración de muebles y viviendas con dicho recurso. Se recomienda impulsar proyectos basados en acciones cooperativas óptimas para el manejo económico del bambú en esta localidad que, por sus características sociales y experiencias propias, generarían beneficios económicamente sustentables a la comunidad.
Since 2007 Inclusive Business has been developed in Ecuador, through alliances between the private anchor company and small agricultural producers, including them in your supplier base. Public-Private Projects based on Social Cohesion were also developed to add value in production chains. The objective of this study is to evaluate the potential of the bamboo chain of Canton El Empalme to generate Inclusive Businesses, reason why two associative models were evaluated, and a comparative theoretical analysis was carried out between strengthening initiatives for this chain and success stories of inclusive businesses in our country. The main results of the research findings include projects developed in this locality that do not have a defined strategy for the sustainability of the association process; however, the bamboo chain of Canton El Empalme has enormous potential for the generation of inclusive businesses because habitants of the areas where the resource grows know about its properties and characteristics of use, and also another important factor is that the species of bamboo that grows there, is one of the most required nationally and internationally. Therefore, training in the craft of making furniture and houses with this eco-friendly resource presents a great development opportunity. It is recommended to promote projects based on optimal cooperative actions for the economic management of bamboo in this locality due to their social characteristics and own experiences they would generate economically sustainable benefits to the community.
