BUSINESSMEN are counting the costs after a fire razed the buildings from which they were operating at Rodney Bay on Tuesday morning.

Several buildings housing popular restaurants like Matthew’s Bar and Q Bar and other catering establishments that make up a section of the bustling Rodney Bay area were affected by the blaze which was spotted sometime after four o’clock in the morning.

A message said: “Massive thanks to all…the support it has been overwhelming and St Lucia, we will be back in the next few weeks”
