Process Components Limited (ProCom) was established in April 1982 by four businessmen in South Trinidad. The company was managed by a dynamic team and had huge potential for growth. However, just one year after its inception, the young company experienced some financial difficulty and they decided that additional capital was needed to grow the business. An invitation was made to Laughlin and De Gannes (LDG) to invest in ProCom, to which LDG agreed. The board of LDG made a decision to purchase 40% interest in the company and in 1984, Tommy Laughlin and Keith D’Abadie, joint Managing Directors at LDG, were welcomed to the Board of Directors at ProCom. The company was located on Royal Road, San Fernando at that time.
