Jamaican Teas Limited (JAMT) – Impact of Hurricane Melissa

The recent passage of Hurricane Melissa over western Jamaica is a most unwelcome development. We grieve for those of our fellow Jamaicans who lost their lives, their livelihoods and their properties in this horrible tragedy. We will play our part in participating in the enormous rebuilding effort that awaits our country.

The damage caused by the hurricane will significantly dampen local sales demand for at least the first half of 2025/26, if not longer.

Fortunately, the group suffered no damage to its premises at Temple Hall nor to the supermarket on Chancery Street or the unsold studios at Belvedere.

Two thirds of the group's manufacturing sales are exported to countries that suffered no ill effects from Melissa and are not directly affected.
