Following the blessing and the ribbon cutting, veteran entrepreneur, Steve Thomson, President of Mailboxes Unlimited, shared how proud he was of the Simons and that he was happy to support them wishing them much success in their endeavors. He shared his own story of how switching to LED lights reduced his BELCO bill by $300.

Also on hand was fellow entrepreneur and neighbor, Mrs. Barbara Spence owner of Designer Ballons who provided the décor for the opening. Mrs. Spence welcomed the Simons to the neighborhood and offered that she was happy to be able to support the opening of their new businesses.

BEDC Finance Director, Ray Jones and Jamillah Lodge, BEDC Business Development Officer, attended the opening and offered to provide business support as needed. Mrs. Lodge commented that “the showroom was beautiful.”

Most of the work was done by Mr. Simons. She continued, “This is an excellent example of how a business can bootstrap its way to opening.” Mrs. Lodge offered that if any additional assistance is needed in the future, BEDC is committed to their business success.”

In September 2010, Albert and Theresa Simons, owners of ATS L.E.D Suppliers, began a home-based business, selling LED products under the name ATS Electrical Suppliers. Over the next four years, the clientele grew to the point where additional storage and operational space became necessary.

They said, “In June 2014, ATS Electrical Suppliers made a name change to ATS L.E.D Suppliers to highlight its products. Our products meet all standards for energy efficient and environmentally friendly lighting.

“Our MISSION at ATS is to educate customers on the advantages and benefits of L.E.Ds, in comparison to incandescent and fluorescent light bulbs whilst cutting cost on their electricity bill.

“Our VISION is to become the islands’ leaders in the release of new and improved LED bulbs and fixtures on an ongoing basis and to meet the ever-changing needs and demands of our customers.

“L.E.D is simply an acronym for light-emitting diode; a semiconductor diode that emits visible light when an electric current passes through it. LED bulbs and fixtures use less power, have longer lifetime, and produce little heat.

“In our Modern Showroom, customers can interact with the various bulbs and fixtures before purchase; thus allowing them to see the amount of lumens emitting from each bulb.

“We are committed to continuing a great relationship with our existing customers, and are extremely excited to meet new ones. Our Showroom is located at #2 Lovers Lane, Ground Floor, Northeast Unit, Paget, in the Paget Dry Cleaners Building.”

    Not sure if the timing of this launch could have come at a worse time. BELCO bills are about to be at an all-time low. Not to mention that a lot of people couldn’t use these if you wanted to.

    With that being said, LED lights are very beneficial. I’ve used them for about two years now and I’ve seen a noticeable difference in my electric bill. Not to mention that the bulbs last longer.

    And you can do home automation with some of these WiFi-enabled LED bulbs. Pretty cool stuff.

  3. Well done and we wish you much success in the future, God has blesses you and no man can stop you, He has given you the creativity of your mind, through His wisdom,knowledge and understanding. go forward in His might and He will direct you all the way, you are a prime example for many young entrepreneurs who are looking to make it in this new age dimension. not to mention that the wealth transference that has been promised unto you, I call it like I see it and it is marvelous and good in God’s eyes.
