Dominica expecting five (5) containers of relief supplies from Trinidad Conglomerate ANSA McAL

Dominica expects to receive five (5) containers of relief supplies from Trinidad Conglomerate ANSA McAL, through its Family First – Hurricane Relief Initiative. The 20’ containers are packed with some of the Group’s own products which will be shipped next week.
 
Items were sourced from AMCO for P&G Brands, Trinidad Match Ltd, ANSA Chemicals, ANSA Technologies, ABEL Building Solutions, Standard Distributors Ltd, Caribbean Development Co Ltd/Carib Brewery Ltd, including donations from the national public and corporate T&T of dry food stuff, tarpaulins, personal hygiene products, generators, tinned goods, household items, baby food, buckets, brooms, water, toilet paper and much more for the people of Dominica.
 
The ANSA McAL Group mobilized its workforce of over 5,500 employees across subsidiaries throughout the Caribbean, including Trinidad and Tobago, Barbados, St Kitts and Nevis, St Lucia, Guyana, Grenada and Jamaica, including ANSA McAL (US) and launched the initiative.
 
A release from ANSA McAl said this was done to bring some measure of relief to our Caribbean brothers and sisters in need of support in rebuilding their lives and communities, after the devastation caused by Hurricane Irma and Maria.
 
The Group says it is heartened and deeply appreciative of the overwhelming support given to this initiative by the citizens of Trinidad & Tobago and the region.
 
An ANSA McAL team will make their way to Dominica next week to work with representatives from the Organization of Eastern Caribbean States (OECS), in the distribution of the supplies on the island. Some of the areas that the team will visit include Scotts Head, Gallion, Soufriere, Grand Bay and Pointe Michel.
 
Alstons Shipping Ltd through Chris Maraj, Managing Director and his team, were instrumental in collating and stuffing all the containers supplied by Tropical Shipping and getting it off port.
