Ripton International Capital Holdings Limited has officially opened the Rogers Commercial Centre, a US$15.5-million mixed-use development at 56–58 Lady Musgrave Road and one of the most significant private investments in the capital in recent years.

The opening drew a wide cross-section of government, business and civic leaders. Among those present were Senator Aubyn Hill, minister of industry, investment and commerce; Delano Seiveright, minister of state in the Ministry of Industry, Investment and Commerce; Mayor of Kingston Andrew Swaby; Commissioner of Police Dr Kevin Blake; and businessman Norman Horne, of ARC Manufacturing Limited.

The centre was developed and is owned by Jamaican entrepreneur Fritzwarien ‘Ripton’ Rogers. It was completed in about two years, financed by JMMB, with building materials supplied by ARC Manufacturing Limited.
