Below is a bid request for as many as 100,000 homes to be built using 80% Canadian sourcing of materials and labor. It seems the initial order may be as few as 75.
Please contact Lea Bell if you are able to fulfill this order, either by yourself or in coordinating with others in Canada.Presumably the homes could be delivered built, or with some basic assembly remaining. I'm not sure of the details.Contact Lea for more information by writing to xynthylene@yahoo.com.GregBegin forwarded message:From: Lea Bell <xynthylene@yahoo.com>Date: January 5, 2012 12:54:29 PM CSTReply-To: Lea Bell <xynthylene@yahoo.com>
I am working with a large contractor who needs to get information for a Canadian companythat can build prefab low income housing around the world. I notice you have listed different types of houses that you build in the UK, other parts of Europe, and in Brazil.Can you urgently respond if you can build low income houses from 75 to `100,000 prefab low income type housing in various countries in South America and North Africa?This is an urgent request please. It is important that 80 percent of the project be Canadian.Thank you.Lea BellPresidentBell International Consultants
