Address: Equity Trust House Caves Village West Bay Street P O Box N-10697 Nassau, Bahamas and a genuine commitment to her home of Eleuthera.”

In the newly-created role as Disney Cruise Line’s public affairs manager, Ms Sweeting-Miller will serve as the liaison for community members in Eleuthera and other Bahamians interested in securing employment with the cruise line, or local businesses interested in providing goods and services to support the operation of the company’s second Bahamas island destination.

“As a whole it has been a challenging year, which began with supply chain challenges, then continued with having to manage inflation while still delivering value and affordability to our customers. We are confident that the foundation we have established for our business is strong, and look forward to recording improved results in 2023, all while balancing the needs of our customers, associates and shareholders.”

AML Foods’ unaudited financials reveal that profits at its franchise division, Domino’s Pizza, actually doubled year-over-year from $543,000 in 2022 to $1.143m. However, that for its core food distribution business fell from $17.007m to $13.61m, leaving less net income to cover its corporate overheads.

The BISX-listed group also confirmed it has undrawn credit lines worth $6.7m available to it after completing the acquisition of the Old Trail Building, which houses its Solomon’s Super Centre format, from Solomon Brothers. “In May 2023, the company signed a new credit facility for an additional $1.7m,” AML Food said.

“Additionally, in May 2023, the company completed the purchase of the Old Trail Building where its current Solomon’s Super Centre store resides. A total of $10.5m was drawn down from the credit facility to complete the purchase and fund renovations on the building. A total of $6.7m remains to be drawn down on the credit facility.”

AML Foods continued:

“Further, in May 2023, the interest rate on all of the company’s existing bank loans were reduced to 3.65 percent in accordance with the terms of the new credit facility. At April 30, 2023, the company had a total of four bank loans with RBC Royal Bank (Bahamas), which bear blended interest rates between 3.65 percent and 4.25 percent. The total principal amount outstanding on the company’s loans was $8.1m.”

“It means so much to me to join a company that is committed to making an impact in the community that I have called home ever since I was a child,” said

Ms Sweeting-Miller. “I’m looking forward to working on behalf of Disney Cruise Line to support local businesses and involve Bahamians in the development and operations of the new island destination at Lighthouse Point.”

Disney’s Lighthouse Point destination will open for guests in summer 2024, with the cruise line stating that the project aims to create sustainable economic opportunities for Bahamians while protecting the natural beauty of the site and celebrating local culture.

Disney added that around 75 percent of the cruises it offers have at least one stop in The Bahamas. All five of its ships are registered in The Bahamas, and it is estimated that the cruise line’s operations currently contribute more than $70m towards Bahamian gross domestic product (GDP) annually. The cruise line has also committed to filling all positions on Castaway Cay with Bahamians across a range of disciplines, with opportunities for training and advancement. Disney has received all the necessary approvals from the Government and has begun work at Lighthouse Point, which is expected to create more than 300 constructionrelated jobs – more than doubling the number of posts it committed to in its Heads of Agreement.
