Nand Persaud & Company Limited; millers and suppliers of white and parboiled rice to local and overseas markets began its operations 29 years ago with a one-ton per hour mill located at No. 36 Village, Corentyne, under the bottom house of the late Founder, Mr. Nand Persaud, who envisioned the need for a milling facility that would cater for rice farmers across East Berbice and, by March 1992, Nand Persaud & Sons was established along with a spare parts center.
Today, the Nand Persaud & Company Rice Milling Complex is one of the most commanding landmarks along the entire Corentyne Public Road. It boasts an ever-evolving state-of-the-art operation that incorporates the latest technology, ensuring consistency in the high quality of the product milled.
