Seeing more and more Demerara surgeries cubes/brands in grocery stores.
Problem is that there are not from Guyana but Mauritius, Thailand etc.

Champagne can only be called Champagne if it’s from Champagne.

Guyana should not allow this.
Have the WTO, or which ever body ban this and capitalize the good name of Demerara.

First, they'd have to trademark the name, and that horse done bolted...

bharat jagdeo was making a speech at the guyana independence day celebration about 8 yrs ago for people not to support bedessee.

bedessee is the company that is using the demerara name to sell mauritius product.
