Nand Persaud’s Karibee Rice Inaugural Golf tournament will be played today with tee-off at 12:30pm at the Lusignan Golf Club. Dozens of players are expected to compete as they prepare for a packed season of tournament golf to finish off the year.
Karibee Rice manufactured by Nand Persaud, the leading company of Guyana’s rice industry, was launched in 1999, and has quickly become the leader in the local and international market as a must have dish for all families.
Known for great taste and quality, it is therefore no surprise that the company’s executives have decided to become members of the Lusignan Golf Club and sponsor a stand-alone tournament as their entry to the game.
Both Devesh and Ragindra Persaud have long been admirers of the sport and with the initiatives of expanding the game to include newcomers, women and children, Karibee Rice always a market leader in many aspects, decided to join forces with Club President Aleem Hussain and the new Executive team to help realize their goals.
“Nand Persaud and Karibee Rice are proud to be associated with the LGC and hope to be a major part of its development in the coming years,” said Devesh Persaud as he committed to sponsoring the tournament.
Players will compete for prizes and honors in the Lusignan Open draw scheduled for August 4-5th.
Fans will be treated to a display of individual players skills in golf on July 14th at the LGC and can also come enjoy the passion and excitement of horse racing at its best tomorrow at the same location where Karibee Rice is manufactured by the Nand Persaud mills in #36 Village Berbice as SkyPlus hosts the $4M sixth running of the only straight line drag racing for horses.
