A successful business model
I AM delighted to offer this message of congratulations to First Union Financial Group Limited on the success of your organisation’s growth and expansion from the ‘four-wheel drive’ office, where you began, to the spacious new permanent home on Eastwood Park Road in the constituency of St Andrew East Central, which I have the honour to represent.
The spectacular growth of First Union Financial Group Limited since it was established in 1999, attests to the success of your business model which combines visionary and conscientious leadership with the commitment to satisfying the highest expectations of your customers for quality service.
Today, First Union has carved out its own unique presence among the most successful microfinancial institutions and continues to show signs of diversifying into other sectors. The products to be presently offered by First Union, beginning with its microfinancing, has helped to set new standards for the industry and can only be described as visionary. The demonstrated capacity of First Union to respond creatively to the financial needs of a growing entrepreneurial sector has provided a lifeline and the opportunity for stability and growth to your many clients who continue to do business in a challenging economic environment. As I extend my congratulations to you on achieving this milestone, let me commend you for your commitment to Jamaica, and anticipate your continued success in providing innovative financial solutions to support Jamaica’s growth and development.
