PM hails Brian George as a ‘believer’ in Jamaica

ST ANDREW, Jamaica – President and CEO of Supreme Ventures Limited and vice chairman of the National Health Fund, Brian George, has been hailed “as a true believer in Jamaica” by the Prime Minister Andrew Holness.

Holness paid tribute to Trinidad born George’s legacy in the development of Jamaica’s economy and the private sector.

“It would be difficult to enumerate all of the contributions Brain made to Jamaica and our people. Through various initiatives led by him, Supreme Ventures has become known for not only its lottery business but also its deep belief in community development. Under Brian, the company became a standard for good corporate citizenship,” Holness said in a statement. 

He added that the country and the government extend sincere condolences to his wife Keneea Linton-George, his sons, friends and family in Trinidad and Tobago and here in Jamaica.

George died this morning.
