TTMA's President’s Dinner & Excellence in Manufacturing Awards On Tuesday 3rd October 2017, the Trinidad and Tobago Manufacturers’ Association hosted its annual President’s Dinner and Excellence in Manufacturing Awards at the Hyatt Regency Trinidad. This formal event saw attendees from all sectors of manufacturing gather to celebrate winners of various new and existing categories in manufacturing excellence. The event showcased this country’s manufacturing innovation and capability as well as new insight into green manufacturing all the while promoting this thriving sector both locally and abroad. The feature speaker of this event was Mr. Robert Price, Chairman of the Board of PriceSmart Inc.. Mr. Price spoke about building a successful business with his father as well as supporting locally made products in Trinidad and Tobago, such as Blue Waters Products Limited who will be providing water for the PriceSmart franchise under a private label. TTMA also presented its Lifetime Achievement Award to Mr. Arthur Lok Jack who spoke about diversifying the economy and supporting the manufacturing sector to help get out of this recessionary period. The evening closed on a speech given my TTMA’s President, Mr. Christopher Alcazar who noted “Nation building is important for us in the business community but it is not only up to us to build the nation, it is up to everyone who lives in this society….. Nation building includes when you as a consumer read on the back of a product ‘Made in Trinidad and Tobago’ you are supposed to feel a sense of pride. To some, you might believe that ‘Made in Trinidad and Tobago’ isn’t a prestigious thing – after all we believe foreign thing is bess. Wrong.” Recognition was given to manufacturers for excellence in various categories – •Innovator of the Year – Trinidad and Tobago Fine Cocoa Company Limited •Green Manufacturer of the Year – Crown Lithography Trinidad Limited •Excellence in Service Award – Blue Waters Products Limited •New Market Entrant Small/Medium – RHS Marketing Limited •New Market Entrant Large – Angostura Limited •Manufacturer of the Year Small – Morning Premium Foods Limited •Manufacturer of the Year Medium – Shazam Enterprises and Investments Limited •Manufacturer of the Year Large – Trinidad Tissues Limited 16
