Courts opened
its doors to the Grenadian public in the town of St. George in
September 1987. Its first Managing Director was Daryl Askell
following his term came Nicholas Elphick, Keith Coltart then Keith
Slater who was subsequently transferred to Belize in 1994.
During these
Managing Director’s tenure Courts opened four (4) more stores in
Grenville, Gouyave, Sauteurs and Victoria respectively. Geoff
Claxton took over the reigns in the same year in 1994 with Nick
Mison as Sales Director, two years later the branches were closed
with the exception of the Grenville Branch.
In 2000
Courts opened the Grand Anse and Carriacou Branches. Grand Anse is
still operational; today with extended opening hours, but Carriacou
was closed in 2003 although we still maintain a presence today with
the assistance of 12 support staff, consisting of Sales Agents,
Technicians and Delivery Personnel
On 11th
July, 2002 the St. George’s Branch suffered a devastating fire, Nick
Mison had recently been transferred to Barbados and Errol Le Blanc
had taken over as Managing Director.
The fire
gutted the entire building but true to form on 12th July
all the team had gathered to look at re-organising and setting in a
temporary alternative location, and within 21days the branch had
been relocated successfully.
It was with
great joy that on the 8th July 2003 the new premises was
had its grand opening and was ready to begin trading.
