LLW Holdings Proudly Sponsors Ms. Rita Lewis of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines
The Miss Plus Caribbean Universe Organization is pleased to announce that LLW Holdings has come on board as the proud sponsor of Ms. Rita Lewis, representing Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. This marks the first time that the company is sponsoring a delegate competing internationally in Grenada.
Organizers expressed their gratitude for LLW Holdings’ commitment, noting that this sponsorship represents “a meaningful start to an exciting journey of international marketing through pageantry.” The collaboration aims to showcase products and services while promoting regional empowerment and cultural pride.
Ms. Rita Lewis, employed at Coconut Grove Resort Restaurant, has been described as a young woman of exceptional potential and individuality. She aspires to change the stigma surrounding plus-size women in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines and to inspire others to embrace self-confidence and beauty in all forms.
According to the organizers, the winner of Miss Plus Caribbean Universe will receive $3,080, along with a cosmetology scholarship sponsored by Styling by Ollie Brown. The first runner-up will receive $2,000, a trophy, and special sponsorship packages.
A total of three queens will be crowned on the night, each earning the opportunity to represent Saint Vincent and the Grenadines in three international pageants scheduled for early 2026. Preparations for these international competitions will begin immediately following the crowning.
The Miss Plus Caribbean Universe pageant continues to focus on empowering women, promoting healthy lifestyles, and encouraging self-development and confidence through the art of pageantry. The organization acknowledges the many challenges it has faced but remains steadfast in its mission to expand opportunities and build partnerships throughout the Caribbean.
Mr. Luke Lashley, the Founder and Creative Director who is a talented Visual Artist, Exotic Winemaker, Fabric designer, mentor, and entrepreneur, praised the initiative and hinted at future collaborations, including plans to introduce LLW Holdings’ premium wine line to Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. The company also aims to engage young entrepreneurs across the region in projects that promote creativity, empowerment, and cultural branding.
The Miss Plus Caribbean Universe Organization extends its sincere gratitude to Mr. Luke Lashley and LLW Holdings for their support and visionary approach. Organizers expressed optimism that Ms. Rita Lewis will be a top contender in the upcoming competition.
