A release from NexGen Global Marketing Services Inc said that Azimut launched their sales division here at the Pegasus Hotel on Saturday night in the presence of Dr. Peter Ramsaroop, CEO, G-Invest and prominent members of the business community.

The release reported Minister of Public Works, Juan Edghill as saying that the time was ripe for Guyana to experience and enjoy the type of luxury and recreation that an Azimut Yacht offers.

The regional team in Guyana, Azimut Yachts Caribbean Limited will be led by Terence Clarke and Amzard Karim and they were joined by Federico Ferrante, President of Azimut Benetti Americas and  Caterina Valiani, Regional Sales Manager from their North American headquarters in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, the release said.

The release said that Rudy Ramalingum from the Maraiko Bay Megaproject extended best wishes to the Azimut-Benetti group, emphasizing that the two companies had much in common  – quality, luxury  and lifestyle,  all areas that were needed on Guyana. “We look forward to providing every one of the new yacht owners with a place to berth their vessels, we’re ready to welcome you home.”

 Edghill whose Ministry covers maritime development stated “You are here at the right time because when, not if but when projects such as Maraiko Bay are completed, the landscape of our country would be unrecognizable and in fact, this is already happening. We have dozens of projects all over the country, from Essequibo, Demerara, Berbice, Linden and everywhere in between that are coming on stream. I assure you that your business is welcome and you don’t have to knock, our door is open!”
