No man Unuh fi pay di people dem star ….that’s the only banana chips mi eat inna foreign eno …maybe mi haffi go stock up
Dem fi pay dem. Di odda day mi guh di West Indian store and is $3 di big pack a Chippies was selling for, mi know tings gone up all ova, but dat price dere was hair raising.
But the one here made in Dominica Republic, ting Mek Guatemala Jamaica companies need fi do better!
The chips are made in Jamaica and the company correct name is J.P. tropical foods, hq a retirement rd.
I also thought it was a co-op deal and the bananas come from a large percent of St. Mary women growers….hmmm
Oh wow!
Keep it up, you soon will be out of a job. How do these workers know how much a company can afford to pay their workers? There is cheap labor all over the world. Doesn’t take much to pack up all the equipment and move to any of the cheap labor countries. It has been done many times!
People have all rights to protest any wrong against them THAT IS THEIR GOD GIVEN RIGHT! Owning a company ISN’T A PHUCKING RIGHT, BUT A DAMN PRIVILEGE!
Dem can close de phucking company and go clear a oh e oh cause dem can be easily duplicated and the workers rehired at an increase.
J.P. better start paying up or justify why. If not, I’m going to boycott those delicious chips! I boycott cigs and ganja so the chips is piece of cake to give up.
