Minister of Agriculture Dr Leslie Ramsammy has lauded the restructuring and reopening of the Guyana Shop, which provides a market for local produce and products as well as other key services needed to add value to them to compete on the local market and for export.
Commissioning the shop, which was rebuilt at the same Robb and Alexander street location where the old Guyana Marketing Cor-poration once stood, Ramsammy expressed pleasure at being the first customer. He noted that the shop stocked goods from the Mangrove Group from Victoria, the Pomeroon Women’s group and the Guyana School of Agriculture. “…You will find the proud products of more than 50 Guyanese agro-processing companies,” Ramsammy said,
