A Variety Store With A Diversity of Support: A&R Enterprise Ltd.

As we adjust to the reality of a post-COVID Belize and the societal changes happening worldwide, now is the time for us to strengthen our corporate social responsibility mindsets. A&R Enterprise has shown us: No matter the size of your operations, the outcomes are overwhelmingly positive, helping to pave the way for a brighter future in the industry and within our community. And it starts right in our backyards.
That's why we're proud to announce A&R Enterprise Ltd. as a Platinum Sponsor for the 13th Annual Belikin Blue Water Classic!
Being a variety department store, it also means that A&R Enterprise has a slew of opportunities to get involved locally, whether in their home base of Orange Walk District or any outpost locations across the country.
Take Ambergris Caye. Over the years, A&R Enterprise has been a critical player through sponsorship of many initiatives, including the Grand Caribe Annual DeepSea Classic Fishing Tournament, the Annual Holiday Lighted Boat Parade, and Ambergris Caye (RCAC) Chapter Rotary—just to name a few. For example, specializing in School and Office Supplies allowed A&R to directly support the San Pedro Public Library (SPPL) through a book drive, ultimately donating two full boxes to support the town library with a new stock of books for promoting literacy and encouraging our youth to read more.

Youth involvement isn’t limited to any one district, either. For example, supporting Chaa Creek Eco-Lodge’s week-long annual summer camp scholarship program for Belizean children over the years has meant supporting biodiversity, conservation, and the three ‘Rs’ being environmentalism.

This year for the 13th Annual Belikin Blue Water Classic, we say thank you to A&R Enterprise Ltd., not only for being an avid corporate sponsor of sports fishing in Belize—ultimately supporting environmentalism, social responsibility, and Belizean youth—but to the Urbina family for being supports themselves, for love of the sport.
