(Jamaica Gleaner) ICON Importers and Distributors, a company with over 25 years of service, has unveiled a major investment in the Global Service Sector (GSS), formally known as business processing outsourcing (BPO). This move will transform the scenic Paradise area of Westmoreland into a vibrant commercial hub, employing approximately 1,000.
Guided by the visionary leadership of Chief Executive Officer Moses Chybar, the company has become a vital part of the local community, known for providing high-quality goods at affordable prices across the manufacturing, import, distribution, and retail sectors.
The construction of its new state-of-the-art BPO facility is set to begin towards the end of this year; however, the company has decided to withhold the actual cost of its financial investment into the project at this time.
“As part of ICON Importers and Distributors’ strategic growth plan, we are excited to announce our intention to construct a modern facility at our Paradise location to house a business process outsourcing company,” said Chybar.
“This project is a significant step in our commitment to contributing to economic growth and development within Westmoreland and Jamaica as a whole,” he told The Gleaner yesterday. “The project is slated to begin by the end of 2025, with a targeted completion date by the end of 2026. Our goal is to have the facility fully operational by the end of the second quarter of 2027.”
