Bowen & Bowen Faces Beverage Supply Disruptions Due to Power Issues

Bowen & Bowen Limited issued a release earlier today, saying it is facing temporary disruptions in beverage production due to recent power challenges from CFE. B&B says that it is working with Belize Electricity Limited (BEL) and the broader community. The company says it is voluntarily reducing its power usage at BEL’s request to help ensure a stable electricity supply for residential areas and other critical services.

In its statement, BEL said “While reducing power usage has caused temporary availability issues for certain products, it is necessary to support continuous power availability to households and critical services. We understand this has caused an inconvenience for our customers and consumers, but we assure you that this is a temporary situation.” 

According to BEL, these power reductions coincide with scheduled maintenance on its production lines and backup generators, further impacting its production capabilities. BEL says it is working diligently to complete this maintenance as quickly as possible.
