The Bold Ones
Jamaica has always had a reputation of having individuals with an entrepreneurial spirit. Too often, though, that spirit is either ignored or beaten down. So I was enthused to read about those businesses that were recognised by the National Bakery as new champions of manufacturing. These companies were honoured for their contribution to the Jamaican economy. It was not a competition but there was a selection process and the added exposure will surely help those businesses continue to excel.
The bold ones are:
- Adduci (Jamaican cigars)
- AMG Packaging Paper Company
- Banyan Creations
- Country House Products
- Chocolate Dreams
- Home Choice
- The Jerk Place
- Pastry Passions
- West Indies Gypsum
- Yono Industries
- Spur Tree Spices
Let us continue to support our local entrepreneurs!

Hi buddy, your blog’s design is simple and clean and i like it. Your blog posts are superb. Please keep them coming. Greets!!!
Usually I do not post on blogs, but I would like to say that this article really forced me to do so! Thanks, really nice article.
Thanks, keep visiting!
One by one increase to two by two,furthering a
well needed re opening of buiseness/production
that will require meaningfull employment under
the freedom of liberty to expand,with the help
of the enforcement of the law,void of thuggery
and extortion,with Drugs & corrupt socialists.
Every Jamaican,where ever we travel or reside
are industrious,with skills inherent. Now that
the rebirth of the bold-ones are recognized,a
rapid expansion of commercial and,an industrial
revolution is inevetable.
Hail to the bold ones with challenges to grow,
in so doing,Jamaica’s image will change for the
better, through the free enterprise system our
old parents state: Turn you hand make fashion.
THIS ARTICLE IS SO TRUE!. THAT WE IN JAMAICA HAVE A TENDENCY TO LOOK DOWN ON SMALL BUSINESS AND ENTREPRENEURS . AND THAT’S WHY WE ARE WHERE WE ARE NOW BECAUSE WE ONLY SEE NEW IDEAS AS NEGATIVE TO US WHO ARE IN BUSINESS!. SO THIS IS A WELCOMING NEWS. AND HOPE IT CONTINUE!.
Let’s hope the trend continues!
This is welcome news. Need more of this. Grow what you eat, eat what you grow.
