A new collective agreement for Grenada Breweries Ltd (GBL), for the period 2016 to 2019 was agreed to and signed off before the expiry date of 31st May 2016.

GBL sent its proposal six months in advance of expiry of the current collective agreement, and the GTAWU responded with the same courtesy, by sending theirs two weeks after. Both entities were able to sign and register the collective agreement with the Labour Commissioner, Mr Cyrus Griffith, before the expiry of the collective agreement.

This represents a new milestone and a step in the right direction for all parties involved.

Newly elected President General of GTAWU, Mr Andrew Lewis and Managing Director of GBL, Mr Ron Antoine, both reconfirmed their commitment and support in growing and maintaining the partnership between both parties.
