for the brand, the island and the Caribbean at large. \u201cThis is a multi-generational act in the making that began with my extraordinary father Gordon \u2018Butch\u2019 Stewart and Prime Minister Gonsalves many years ago. They flirted heavily about flying the Vincy flag not only here but in all the other islands across the Caribbean that Sandals has its operations. Little did we know that 43 years later the Sandals brand would grow from one 99-room hotel in Montego Bay to a top 500 brand known on the world stage as a super brand.

At the time we also had volcanic eruptions, Sandals came to us with a proposal to recruit Vincentians and send them to their resorts across the Caribbean to be trained. We had to evacuate 20,000 persons with some in shelters for four to six months. Along came a friend in Sandals who said they could ease some of the pressure providing opportunities for 500 people and these little things talk to me about partnership. This might have been small for Sandals but it was a huge thing for us in the condition in which we found ourselves and I want to thank Sandals and Adam.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is an understatement really to call Sandals a brand. It has become an existential part of our Caribbean civilization. This civilization is tailor-made for tourism and Butch Stewart has helped to shape this aspect of the material to help sustain us. I think that when the history of the 20<sup>th<\/sup> into the 21<sup>st<\/sup> century is written, there would be a towering place for this legend,\u201d The Hon. Gonsalves continued.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In honour of the late Gordon \u2018Butch\u2019 Stewart, Prime Gonsalves in opining that the relationship he enjoyed with the late founder made him \u201cone of us\u201d shared a remarkable plan to celebrate his memory and contributions to tourism and economic development in the region. \u201cThe government of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines had indicated to Sandals that we will build the road coming to the entrance of the hotel.
