JMMB News

Having taken a break during the month of August, the second round of the JMMB Goal Getter Live series is set to kick things off come Tuesday, September 1, this time around the series will turn its attention to tackling the wide range of men’s issues, including: relationships, finances, fatherhood, and success, among other topics, in a special edition dubbed, “All Man Talk.”

JMMB Group has reported net profit of J$780.2 million, for the first quarter of its 2020/2021 financial year ending June 30, which represents a decline of 30% for the comparative 2019 quarter; due to the economic slowdown and uncertainty in the market, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

In a recent JMMB Goal Getter Live episode, seven (7) JMMB small business clients joined in a virtual expo, hosted by the company, giving these entrepreneurs an opportunity to showcase their uniquely Jamaican products and services to a diversified online audience, including Jamaicans locally and in the diaspora. Kerry-Ann Stimpson, moderator of the event and chief marketing officer at JMMB Group outlined, “The company sought to use this avenue to give some of our small business clients an occasion to show off their products and services, as our way of supporting them, and encouraging our fellow Jamaicans to also buy local products and use the services of our Jamaican small businesses, who form the backbone of our economy and are among the hardest hit by the COVID-19 pandemic.”

Several destinations now have new travel restrictions in place and some activities have come to a grinding halt, due to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19), but summer 2020 is not cancelled, just different this year, shared Kerry-Ann Stimpson, chief marketing officer at JMMB Group and moderator, of a recent JMMB Goal Getter Live (webinar). So, instead of cancelling all your vacation plans, how about taking the time to explore the beautiful island paradise that we call home – Jamaica – by staycationing?
