Demerara Distillers Limited (DDL) breaks ground on a US$10 million redevelopment and expansion project in St. Kitts and Nevis. The ceremony takes place on Thursday, August 6, for work carried out through DDL’s subsidiary, Demerara Distillers (St. Kitts and Nevis) Limited.
Both outlets say the project targets DDL’s existing facilities at Bird Rock and aims to enhance manufacturing and distribution capacity across the Eastern Caribbean. InNews Guyana adds that the redevelopment will improve regional distribution and showcase the company’s rum heritage.
Guyana Chronicle frames the expansion more directly around strengthening DDL’s manufacturing and distribution footprint. While both sources describe the same initiative, they emphasize different aspects—one focusing more on heritage and regional distribution, the other on manufacturing and the broader footprint in the Eastern Caribbean. The articles do not provide construction timelines or further financial breakdowns beyond the US$10 million figure.
