TGIF! We are Proud Branson Centre Entrepreneurs!

by Brand JamaicaCharitiesGW ArtHealth & FitnessWhat's Hot

Greetings Suga Fam! I know you haven’t received Suga Mail in a few days, but some unexpected work had to be done to the website and we have been busy too!

Not to worry, if you are not on instagram, we will fill you in on what you’ve missed. So check your mail this weekend!

So, FYI, Suga & hubby, Randy graduated yesterday after a hardcore 3-month Business Accelerator Journey ?

Randolph and Gabrielle Burgess, Owners of Suga Lifestyle

Yesterday was not only Graduation Day, but Pitch Day ?

Lesson relearnt yesterday:
It’s not about how you start, it’s how you finish. Get your ‘ish’ together and FINISH STRONG.

Thanks so much to my Clare (especially for my pep talk??), sweet Yvonne and the rest of the Branson Centre (Ig: @bransoncentrecaribbean) team for believing in us and guiding us through. It truly takes a Village.

Team Suga showed Resilience yesterday and we said screw it, let’s do it!

Thanks to Randy for telling me to just be myself and of course, we couldn’t have done it without our new family, the rest of our fantastic cohort and their words of encouragement, cheering us on. We are in this together.

XoXo, Suga

Fling back Friday a.k.a #fbf to an amazing showcase of 30 local businesses focusing on MSMEs and highlighting Handcrafted, Handmade, JAMAICAN last Saturday at Suga Lifestyle’s Christmas Connection at The Jamaica Pegasus.

The 1-stop Christmas shop that had patrons leaving with Bags upon Bags of gifts and goodies and smiles from ear to ear.

My Dear Selected Suga Artisans, you did a fantastic job preparing for the show, showcasing the BEST of what Jamaica has to offer in one space and interacting with patrons on a different level. This makes the Connection, Suga Lifestyle’s Christmas Connection an Experience and not just a shopping event.

To add that sprinkle of the good Suga on top, the Experience was enhanced by tasting the World’s Best Coffee, Jablum Coffee Blue Mountain Jamaican Coffee and Wines, from Select Brands with the one and only Wine Lady Debra pairing with our local Chocolatiers Chocollor Chocolate & Fall in Chocolate.

Also, a memorable performance by Spechinal produced by Big Tings Music. BIG up.

Thanks to the Rotaract Club of New Kingston for your assistance and I look forward to executing our Charitable Projects next year!
