RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE::(Banro intends to control costs by continuing to improve operating efficiencies through optimizing operating procedures and increasing production and processing capacities at Twangiza and Namoya to benefit from economies of scale, while maintaining strong environmental and safety standards.
