Businesswoman turns Pedro Cay’s challenges into success

#JamaicaStar
For decades, Pedro Cay has been a hub of resilience and resourcefulness, but few embodies this more than Shernet 'Nadine' Linton. Arriving on the cay at just 17, Linton's journey from selling box drinks to becoming a business powerhouse is nothing short of inspiring. Hailing from St Elizabeth, Jamaica's breadbasket, Linton brought her deep-rooted connection to food and commerce to Pedro Cay, shaping not only her own future, but that of her family. Initially, she sold box drinks, chocolate milk, and orange juice. But life on the cay wasn't easy. "Until life got a little bit better, I stopped selling and went into fishing," she recalls. Soon, her hustle expanded -- she bought a boat, employed workers, and eventually ran a thriving shop that sold everything ,from ground provisions to rice, flour and pig's tail.
