NEMO Warehouse Officially Handed Over
The National Emergency Management Organisation (NEMO) officially took possession of its newly retrofitted and expanded warehouse facility located in the Campden Park Industrial area earlier today Wednesday 7th January, following a handing over ceremony held at the facility today.
The upgrade was done under the Volcanic Eruption Emergency Project and funded through a loan from the World Bank. The project was executed by Gibson’s Construction Limited, with design and supervisory service provided by Stewart Engineering Limited.
The upgraded warehouse now spans approximately 22,490 square feet and includes expanded storage areas, office space, staff amenities, male & female washrooms, a kitchen, electrical and generator rooms, enhanced fencing, water storage capacity, and a lift system to facilitate the movement of goods between floors.
The facility is also equipped with modern fire alarm and security systems, photovoltaic panels, and an automatic transfer switch to ensure operational continuity during power outages.
This warehouse will serve as NEMO’s primary storage facility for emergency supplies, significantly enhancing the organisation’s ability to respond swiftly and effectively to disasters across St. Vincent & the Grenadines.
