The Grenada Building and Loan Association (GBLA) is set to commemorate its 100th anniversary on October 8, 2025, a landmark achievement since its registration on October 8, 1925, under the Building Societies Ordinance of 1887. This centennial celebration underscores a century of unwavering resilience, indigenous service, and dedication to the people of Grenada. As the nation’s oldest and only Building Society, GBLA has been a cornerstone of financial empowerment, fostering property ownership, share investments, and financial independence for Grenadians both locally and abroad. Its member-centric approach has remained a guiding principle throughout its century-long journey. Founded during a time when access to credit was scarce for the average Grenadian, GBLA began as a modest mutual institution and grew into a symbol of hope and opportunity. Its founders—Arnold Williamson, Ronald O. Williams, Frank L. Gresham, and Dr. Arnot Steele—laid the groundwork for what has become a respected and unique financial institution. Over the decades, GBLA has weathered political shifts, economic downturns, and natural disasters, emerging stronger each time. Today, it continues to operate through investments in local mortgages and deposits, helping thousands of Grenadians achieve homeownership and financial stability. As GBLA looks to the future, it plans to expand its offerings with innovative financial products tailored to the needs of its members. The Association extends its heartfelt gratitude to its members, staff, directors, and the people of Grenada for their unwavering support. Together, GBLA and its community look forward to shaping another century of possibilities. Congratulations to GBLA on 100 years of resilience, longevity, and service!
