In a landmark move towards environmental sustainability, Republic Bank has played a pivotal role in the launch of the Greening the Market — St. George’s Market Composting Pilot Project. The initiative, unveiled on September 29 at the Kirani James Athletics Stadium, marks a significant step in Grenada’s journey towards climate resilience and sustainable community practices. The project, spearheaded by GrenadaGrows and supported by Republic Bank, aims to transform organic waste into valuable compost, benefiting local agriculture and fostering a culture of responsible consumption and production. Mavis Mc Burnie, General Manager of Operations at Republic Bank, emphasized the project’s broader mission: to shift mindsets, empower communities, and build a Grenada that values its natural resources. The initiative aligns with several United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), including Responsible Consumption and Production, Climate Action, Life on Land, and Partnerships for the Goals. Republic Bank’s involvement is part of its long-standing social investment programme, The Power to Make A Difference, which has been driving community development for over two decades. The bank also commended the efforts of Dr. Judlyn Telesford-Checkley and the GrenadaGrows team, alongside other stakeholders, for their dedication to environmental sustainability. The six-month pilot project, supported by various government and private sector partners, underscores Republic Bank’s commitment to environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles, paving the way for a greener, more resilient Grenada.
