Caribbean Chemicals (Guyana) is currently celebrating its twentieth anniversary as a provider of a range of services and products to Guyana’s agricultural sector. The company, its Managing Director, Victor Pires says, boasts a proud and distinguished record of service to the country’s agricultural sector.
Pires is the son of the legendary Guyanese plant pathologist Joseph Pires whose contribution to research and development in local agriculture through the National Agricultural Research Institute (NARI) is well-known among the older generation of Guyanese farmers and students of the discipline of Agricultural Science. In his heyday, Joseph Pires earned a reputation as one of the world’s most accomplished experts in sugar cane plant pathology and in 1966 he established the first centre of what is now a region-wide service to the agricultural sector in Port-of-Spain, Trinidad and Tobago.
