T here used to be a creole radio advertisement that ran like this: "Gargle, cungo da Walman pan Albert Street. Walman get di bess shoes fi di entaya family." Whenever Belizeans were looking for long lasting shoes it was from a shoe store and manufacturer named "Walman's." Whenever they wanted category or high class they bought at Bata which mostly dealt with the brand name "Canada." Now in San Pedro there were no shoes then, but let us look at some products and services.
