Annual Report 2013
The TCL Group keeps its subsidiary and Group websites
relevant and informative and has also launched its social
media presence. This includes a TCL Learning Academy
Facebook page, an active Blog, which ‘lives’ on the TCL
website, a monthly e-Newsletter that is shared via email
with customers and a regularly updated Linked-In page.
The TCL Group continues to demonstrate its Corporate
Social Responsibility and has recently partnered with the
Ministry of Works and Infrastructure (Trinidad and Tobago)
to maintain and beautify the north-western and south-
western Claxton Bay flyover embankments.
8.0 EXECUTIVE CHANGES
During the year 2013, there was only one change to the

9.0 LOOKING AHEAD
The Group will continue to move forward with optimism
in 2014 and beyond. The Group’s resilience and
Management’s focus on its mandate resulted in the clear

TCL Group is keenly poised to sustain this growth path
and regain its rightful place as one of the premier Pan
Caribbean organisations.
