With little more than an entrepreneurial instinct and a passion for turning whatever local fruit ‘fits the bill’ into a dehydrated condiment, 28-year-old Adaiah Fyffe has convinced himself that what started as no more than a likeness for that kind of experimentation, has grown into a conviction that it take him to a breakthrough both here in Guyana and perhaps elsewhere in the region.
His ‘weakness’ reposes in his impatience to grow demand for his dehydrated sweet fruit (pineapple is the only one that we have tasted so far) into a household snack product. It is a disposition that tends to ‘blind’ him somewhat to the hurdles that he will have to cross if he is to get to where he wants to go.
