BRYDENS – HOW WE MADE IT BETTER
Building value and putting people first

WE DIDN’T DO WHAT THEY SAID WE’D DO.
When we acquired A. S. Bryden & Sons (Barbados) Ltd. in early 2004, some quarters of public opinion predicted significant job loss as a result of the overlap of businesses in distribution.

It did not happen!

As planned prior to the acquisition, we integrated Brydens distribution companies into our distribution sector and created greater efficiencies and operational synergies that have resulted in improved performance for all company sectors.

WE DID WHAT WAS BEST FOR BRYDENS AND BARBADOS.
From the beginning ANSA McAL recognized the great value of the Brydens name and we built on this goodwill. We wanted the people in the organization that made it happen, to be comfortable and confident and to continue to make it happen.
