Our thoughts and prayers are with his family, friends, and all those who had the privilege of knowing and working with him during this difficult time.
May his soul rest in peace,” the bank said.
Beharry Group of Companies established since 1935 comprises some of the most established and progressive businesses in Guyana and the Region. It’s operations include Commercial and Merchant Banking, Food Manufacturing, Margarine, butters, ice-creams and detergents, Insurance life, fire, motor, marine and general, and Automotive interests. The Beharry Group is a family business started six decades ago as a humble operation with just three employees. Today, staff population has grown. Continuing in the family tradition, three generations of Beharry’s now manage this conglomerate. Family pride may have a lot to do with the continued success of the organization as the Beharry name is literally always on the line, in every product and service offered to the public.
