Super Value food stores are taking a significant hit as a result of protracted power cuts, according to its owner Rupert Roberts.
Roberts said about six Super Value locations are impacted by outages daily and the company has spent around $100,000 recently on replacing equipment damaged by the outages.
He described the outages as “a nuisance” and said they create “chaos”.
“This BEC (Bahamas Electricity Corporation) crisis is more than a crisis, it’s chaos,” Roberts said at the Nassau Street store.
“It’s costing us $250,000 a year from burning up our equipment.”
