- Provided advise to Michel Kammon, an Ecuadorian businessman of Lebanese origin and owner of the business KAMM® Chocolate, who was granted food hygiene registration for his product KAMM Chocolate 85% fine flavor cacao with hemp seeds. During the regulatory transition, this work was a challenge. The objective was achieved after formal requests resulted in two meetings, despite a revolving door of officialdom, which finally brought his business plan for this particular product to fruition after long months of frustration.
- In support of the pharmaceutical industry, Daniela helped petition the hygiene regulation and control agency ARCSA to reach a decision on the cancellation of a hygiene registration for medical products because they were not sold in Ecuadorian territory.
