Grand Bahama Aggregate Supplier Expansion Under Ministerial Review
What happened
Gregory Moss, attorney for Freeport Aggregates, submitted a letter to JoBeth Coleby-Davis, Minister of Energy, Utilities and Aviation, regarding a Grand Bahama aggregate supplier's expansion plan. The company plans a further $9 million investment to expand production, aiming to meet local and export demands. This expansion is projected to create 20 new jobs and is targeted for completion in the third quarter of 2027.

Why it matters
The investment aims to compensate for the temporary shutdown of Bahama Rock and bolster the domestic aggregate supply chain. The company requires the acquisition of additional land to proceed with the capacity expansion.
A new weather center is being established with the signing of a HOA, leading to concerns regarding the potential takeover by a private entity.
