Under the theme ‘Your Neighbour, Your Partner, Your Future’, the St. Kitts Nevis Anguilla Trading and Development Company Limited (TDC) on Monday July 10 celebrated the ‘TDC Day’, marking the 50th anniversary of the company’s incorporation.
“Today is actually 50 years after the purchase, by the promoters of TDC, of the assets of J. W. Thurston and Company Limited, and H. F. Wildy and Company Limited were finalised,” said Mr Earl Kelly, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the TDC Group of companies.
Mr Kelly made the remarks at the TDC Home and Building Depot at the CAP Southwell Industrial Park in Basseterre, where the 50th anniversary cake cutting ceremony that was presided over by Assistant Manager, TDC Client Relations and Marketing Department, Ms Jhanelle Brown, and attended by senior management and staff, was held.
According to Mr Kelly, on the 9th of January 1973, the promoters of the company signed an agreement with the owners of the two companies (J. W. Thurston and Company Limited, and H. F. Wildy and Company Limited) to purchase their assets.
