Stephen Price, Vice President and General Manager of Flow Jamaica, highlighted the efficient coordination with Liberty Latin America's Miami team, which functioned as a secondary command center throughout the operation. “We have mobilized multiple relief teams across the island and are prepared to continue receiving shipments that will help save lives,” Price remarked.
