The Labour Ministry is to meet this week with Fernandes Guyana Enterprise Inc over its sudden decision to close its bakery operations here.
General Manager of the Suriname-based company, Rogier Simson told the Sunday Stabroek that the closure of Fernandes Guyana Enterprise Inc is still under discussion with various stakeholders. Speaking on Wednesday, Simson explained, “As it currently stands, we unfortunately cannot give too much information as we are currently engaged in various stakeholders. We are still in the phase of hashing that out…it’s very important for us to maintain the confidentiality of our stakeholders before we talk further.”
At a visit to one of DemBakes’ locations on Church Road in Georgetown on Friday, the Sunday Stabroek spoke to an employee who confirmed the bakery’s shutdown, stating, “DemBakes isn’t functional right now,” though no further details were provided on the situation.
