United States ambassador to the Dominican Republic Hans Hertell has congratulated the Condovi company for its work with Haitian laborers. Hertell and the American ambassador to Haiti, along with other staff, toured the grounds of the Condovi complex that operates on the Haitian side of the border in Juana Mendez (the Dominican name for the Haitian border town of Ouanaminthe). In the free trade zone where Condovi operates there are 2,000 Haitian employees, at various levels.
