Digicel today announced its intention to move its Digicel Jamaica and Digicel Group offices to a brand new facility on the waterfront in downtown Kingston.

Colm Delves, Group CEO of Digicel, stated: “Jamaica is the home of Digicel and we are proud of the deep connections we have built here. Since our inception here eight and a half years ago, we’ve constantly set new standards in everything we do and the way in which we do it.

“We have been looking for the right location to house our Digicel Group and Digicel Jamaica offices for some time. Our intention now is to spearhead the rejuvenation of downtown Kingston. This is a great opportunity for Digicel to bring its special brand of vibrancy and positive energy to an area that will benefit significantly. We’re proud to be leading the way and we are delighted to be working with the Government to pioneer this project.”

This move sees Digicel spearheading the revival of the downtown Kingston area and bringing Digicel Jamaica and Digicel Group staff together under one roof for the first time.

Digicel is currently in the final stages of negotiating terms and carrying out feasibility studies on a plot of land right on the waterfront in downtown Kingston.

Prime Minister, Bruce Golding, said that his Government is committed to ensuring that the right transport links and infrastructure are in place for Digicel’s arrival in the area; “We are very pleased that Digicel is supporting our downtown rejuvenation efforts and that it is once again displaying its leadership character, deep regard for and commitment to Jamaica, its people and its development. Ensuring that the right infrastructure, amenities and transport links are in place in good time for this move is an absolute priority for us.”
