And as you saw, when Floralia's maiden run West left the city last night it did so with just one passenger. We asked the owner if he was discouraged by last night's apparent lack of consumer appetite, but he says not in the least:
Cherisse Halsall:
"When you learned that your debut run from Belize City to Belmopan left with just one passenger, were you discouraged?"
Marvin Vanzie, Owner/ Co-Founder
"No, not at all. Last year December 6th we started our journey and we are very green to it. A lot of moments of being nervous. But we learnt that it's all about informing people and giving people that option. It's not going to be day one you're going full up and it's going to be slow days; days that just one person, but again, that doesn't make it any different. We need to make sure that person feels extra special they traveling to Belmopan and eventually it will grow to the point where its a bit more sustainable, but the rest of the run which is coming from Placencia and all of that is backing up that leg."
