Business View Caribbean | March 2020

28 BUSINESS VIEW CARIBBEAN MARCH 2020 involved the whole community. He relates, “It was a house that we rebuilt for an elderly lady after hurricane Ivan in 2004 destroyed hers. We raised community assistance by reaching out to suppliers to donate materials; reaching out to other companies and employees to donate time. I came out of the office and put on a toolbelt and joined my wife and my kids and a lot of other people and we built that lady a new home in about 17 days. That was one of the most rewarding things I’ve done. On the flip side of that, a client wanted us to build an award- winning house for them over on Little Cayman. We ended up doing that project and became very good friends with the owners. And we did win the Governor’s Award for that home in 2015. It is a spectacular Bali-style house, large porches with overhangs, some connecting walkways in between. We were able to go antique shopping with the client when we were furnishing the home – that kind of thing makes what we do a whole lot of fun.” Tropic Air Conditioning Ltd.
