Geographic Presence

We are in Westmoreland, Jamaica which has historical and personal importance to the key stakeholders of this company. In that, our grandfather gave this land to our father, and we spent significant time during our childhood in this part of the country. In addition, our grandfather left a blueprint for DeLeon's philanthropic pursuits when he donated his personal tank to the community which provides much-needed water to this day. Therefore, it is important for us to continue to foster mutually beneficial relationships with this diverse and special community.

Commitment to Safety

Safety is an utmost priority at DeLeon, so we maintain a rigorous safety culture and implement comprehensive safety protocols to ensure the well-being of our employees, contractors, and surrounding communities. We will hire highly trained safety personnel to conduct regular inspections, hazard assessments, and risk mitigation strategies to eliminate accidents and create a safe work environment. We will employ continuous safety training programs and awareness campaigns to further strengthen our commitment to protecting lives.

Community Engagement

We recognize the importance of building strong relationships with the community in which we operate. Through extensive community engagement initiatives, we will actively seek input, address concerns, and collaborate on mutually beneficial projects. We will strive to provide sustainable economic opportunities, support local infrastructure development, and prioritize hiring from nearby communities. Furthermore, we will engage in transparent and regular dialogue to maintain an open line of communication and foster positive relationships.

At DeLeon, we believe in giving back to society and actively engaging in various CSR initiatives. These include educational programs, healthcare initiatives, environmental conservation projects, and cultural heritage preservation. Through our CSR endeavours, we will aim to make a positive and lasting impact on the community in which we operate, contributing to their social and economic development.
