TTMA mourns Sean Roach

The Trinidad and To­ba­go Man­u­fac­tur­ers’ As­so­ci­a­tion (TTMA) is mourn­ing the death of Sean Roach of Langston Roach In­dus­tries Lim­it­ed, de­scrib­ing his pass­ing as a pro­found loss to the coun­try’s man­u­fac­tur­ing and busi­ness com­mu­ni­ties.

In a state­ment, the TTMA ex­tend­ed con­do­lences to Roach’s fam­i­ly, col­leagues and the team at Langston Roach In­dus­tries, as well as oth­ers who knew and worked along­side him.

Roach was recog­nised as a re­spect­ed mem­ber of Trinidad and To­ba­go’s man­u­fac­tur­ing sec­tor and con­tributed to the growth and de­vel­op­ment of Langston Roach In­dus­tries Lim­it­ed.

The TTMA not­ed that his achieve­ments in­clud­ed re­ceiv­ing its Most Suc­cess­ful Mar­ket En­trant – Large award at the 2019 Pres­i­dent’s Din­ner and Ex­cel­lence in Man­u­fac­tur­ing Awards.

The as­so­ci­a­tion said Roach’s con­tri­bu­tion to the man­u­fac­tur­ing com­mu­ni­ty would be re­mem­bered by those who worked with him and ben­e­fit­ed from his ef­forts.

“His pass­ing is a pro­found loss to his fam­i­ly, col­leagues, the Langston Roach In­dus­tries team and the wider busi­ness and man­u­fac­tur­ing com­mu­ni­ty,” the TTMA said.

The as­so­ci­a­tion ex­tend­ed its heart­felt sym­pa­thies to Roach’s fam­i­ly, friends and col­leagues, say­ing it hoped they would find strength and com­fort in the mem­o­ries and lega­cy he leaves be­hind.

Roach’s death comes as the man­u­fac­tur­ing sec­tor con­tin­ues to recog­nise the con­tri­bu­tions of lo­cal en­tre­pre­neurs and busi­ness lead­ers to the de­vel­op­ment of Trinidad and To­ba­go’s econ­o­my.

The TTMA said it joined those mourn­ing his pass­ing and of­fered its con­do­lences to all af­fect­ed by the loss.

It con­clud­ed its state­ment by ex­tend­ing wish­es of peace for Roach and strength to those clos­est to him.
