“Remittances are a large or actually the reason why Western Union is here. It’s a large part of who we are and what we do. We have over three hundred and sixty-four thousand locations throughout the world to see to the needs of remittances senders and receivers worldwide in over two hundred countries and we know how important it is to be involved in the communities that we serve. ZITRO is a great example of an organization that’s a forward thinking, customer centered company, the kind of company with whom we like to associate and we know that together we will be able to do a fantastic job in reaching out to and delivering the needs of consumers here in Belize. And it is a pleasure to welcome ZITRO to the world of Western Union and the world of Western Union master agents worldwide, again in over two hundred countries.”
