According to the bank as a key pillar of the Beharry Group, Chico’s legacy of excellence, commitment, and service to the people of Guyana has left an indelible mark on our nation. “His spirit of entrepreneurship and dedication to community upliftment has inspired many, and his loss will be deeply felt. 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.

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.
