Demerara Bank Ltd (DBL) yesterday said that it has granted a number of concessional loans to vendors whose businesses were gutted in the fire that devastated the Parika Market.
The fire on February 10 left many vendors struggling to return to their daily source of income. The Bank said in a release that it has been working closely with local authorities to identify the affected vendors in order to offer them concessional financing during this difficult time.
“We are deeply saddened by the devastating impact of the recent fire”, said Pravinchandra Dave, CEO of the Bank.
