TAKING STOCK - WHY BELIZE DOMINATES CARIBBEAN SUGAR INDUSTRY; JAMAICA ECONOMY WORST DECLINE EVER

Is sugar dead? In Jamaica, manufacturing and distribution companies like Seprod, have rid their hands completely of sugar. Was that the right choice? In this special feature, I take a trip to my home country, Belize, to explore how they’ve been able to sustain their sugar industry even amid challenging times.
And THE ANALYSTS weigh in on the latest market developments…The worst quarterly decline in Jamaica’s history! The Statistical Institute of Jamaica, STATIN, has released data showing the economy contracted by 18% for the second quarter of 2020 (between April and June). And Sygnus gets the nod from shareholders for an Additional Public Offer.

I think Mr Green needs to not only watch this episode but take a trip to Belize and see how they are making sugar farming profitable and bring that knowledge back to Jamaica to help farmers!

Kinda waiting on an episode that push craft vendors and crafts men into online selling in stores Etsy. Jampro and the bigger heads lagging behind. More training needed.
