CEO Earl Jarrett is pleased with the changes. “It is clear that JN has in place a great leadership team,” he says, “that will not only navigate the challenges of business but that will also carry on the legacy of its predecessors.”
BEAUTY: As Weston Haughton’s new partner at Crown of Beauty, franchise holders of the Miss Jamaica World beauty pageant, Dahlia Harris wants to use the platform to bring meaningful and lasting change to the lives of young Jamaican women, buoyed by the ‘beauty with a purpose’ mantra. “Beauty with a purpose continues to be very important to us, and one of the things we want to do this year is launch the Miss Jamaica World Mentorship Programme,” she told the Observer. “If you list all the [past] winners and what they have achieved and how they have contributed, they truly represent Beauty with a Purpose. So we want to identify young women in their communities who are already actively involved in projects [and can] make a difference to national life.”
