However, for Christine Brown, the pandemic has provided an economic opportunity, which has also created employment for her family members, who lost their substantive employment as result of the pandemic.
Brown, who works at Total Credit Services Limited, a member company in The Jamaica National Group, said her source of second income began by accident when she celebrated her birthday in May by cooking for close family members and friends, who dropped by her house for a plate.
Brown said that that one order sparked an idea, and she told herself, maybe she should start her own catering business.
With the increase in orders, she had to seek help from her family members, whom she now employs to assist in filling the orders.
Brown has big plans for Khrissy’s Kitchen, as she wants to formalise the business by getting a proper location and employing more members of staff.
