The BEDC was established in 1980 as the Bermuda Small Business Development Corporation. This joint venture between Bermuda’s banks and the Government was formed to actively assist the development of a strong, well managed and prosperous small business sector in Bermuda. In 2011, the BSBDC Act was amended to expand its remit. Under the new legislation the Corporation performs the following functions:
- the granting of loans or other forms of financial assistance, to assist persons in establishing, carrying on or expanding small businesses, medium-sized businesses and entities within economic empowerment zones; - the provision of technical advice or assistance to persons who are seeking or who are granted financial assistance; to operate and manage markets; - to oversee and manage the development and implementation of the economic empowerment zones; and - the maintenance of a Register of Small Businesses, Medium-Sized Businesses and Economic Empowerment Zone Business Entities.

Very informative and realistic. Keep it real and push forward (through challenges and turmoils). Well done. Keep pushing on. Questions, what is the base for the drinks? Flavours? Fruit? Does it have bubbles or is it a flat beverage?
Thank you so much for watching and your comments. I feel the support and appreciate it very much. The base is carbonated water. I have several flavors but am focusing on 2 at this time, spicy mango and cucumber melon.
Thank you Jamillah for your excellent interview with Orchid Lee and Heidi Daniels-Roque. Orchid and Heidi, thank you for sharing your experience and journeys.
