Businessman Omar Azan is the president of the Jamaica Manufacturers' Association (JMA) and chief executive officer of Boss Furniture Company Limited. Located in the heart of downtown Kingston, this company, as others, is now grappling with the challenges of the current economically difficult times.

In spite of all this, Azan and his family still donate a part of their dwindling profits to benefit students and many charitable organisations. But they continue to be optimistic about he future and are grateful for the support of the local hotel sector as well as members of the public.

To help him cope with life's ups and downs, Azan relies on the words of Proverbs, chapter 3, verse 5 that reads:

Trust in the Lord with all thine heart: and lean not unto thine own understanding.

- King James Version
