A new era is starting for Cayman businesses. Known for its pristine beaches and most important the diverseness of financial services that it offers to the world, the Cayman Islands are now joining the club of beer exporters fighting for shelf space in the US.
A local brewer - Cayman Islands Brewery (CIB) - is shipping its “Caybrew” to a distributor in Florida; a first for Cayman manufacturers, and the fact is been praised as an entrepreneur success history by Dax Basdeo, the CEO of the Cayman Islands Investment Bureau.
“This is an excellent opportunity for the CI Brewery and is an example of the potential of our local businesses and entrepreneurs,” said Basdeo. “As a past client of the Investment Bureau, it is gratifying to see this business grow, succeed and to hopefully have an even greater economic impact locally through the expansion of its market overseas.” he declared to Caymen Net News.
The brew will debut in stores in Tampa May 1st. For more information on Caybrew, visit http://www.cib.ky/.
