Thirty years ago, the food processing company Carita Jamaica employed only two people. One of them was Rita Hilton, who is now the CEO and supervises over 30 workers, most of them from the vulnerable economic surrounding areas.

This video shows how the initiatives are helping many Jamaicans escape from poverty.
