The Dominica government has submitted a proposal to take over the local operations of Colgate-Palmolive, following the company’s decision to close its doors.

The closure of Dominica Coconut Products (DCP), which produces raw oil and soap, puts 94 people on the breadline.

According to Caribbean 360 News, Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit said the government wants to enter a private treaty with Colgate-Palmolive to take over the DCP property, located in the western community of Belfast, and keep the operations going.

Skerrit said he intends to meet with the president of the company very soon to advance the discussions.
