After being in operation for only seven months, the ExxonMobil-funded Centre for Local Business Development has already registered more than 400 Guyanese businesses in its database, surpassing its end-of-year target of 100 companies.

During a recent interview with Stabroek News, Director of the Centre, Patrick Henry stated that it  has over 1,100 businesses registered in its portal, with over 40% of them being Guyanese businesses.

In July, Henry had told Stabroek News that some 40 businesses had already been registered and that they were aiming to have at least 100 by the end of the year.
