Issuing the admonishment at the official opening the fifth store in the Massy chain this morning, Minister of Industry, International Business, Commerce and Small Business Donville Inniss said whatever the criticisms about “Massy, nationality, owners and politics”, the reality was that the Trinidadian conglomerate was investing in Barbados’ economy and people.
“Those who had a chance to do something about ownership structure and nationality and did nothing about it, ought not now to be complaining” Inniss said.
