AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Tourism Research & Policy: The Caribbean Tourism Organization will launch the inaugural Caribbean Tourism Research Forum on Oct. 6 during SOTIC 2026 in Guyana, aiming to connect researchers, policymakers and industry leaders through practical research showcases. Local Agriculture Supply Chains: Prime Minister Mia Amor Mottley called for contract buying to support Barbados farmers, announcing a $2 million fund to kick-start the initiative. Funeral Industry Regulation: The Barbados Association of Funeral Directors urged full modernisation of funeral laws, saying the sector is held back by an outdated regulatory framework after court action involving Two Sons Funeral Home. Fisheries Recovery & Costs: Fishermen raised concerns about limited ice capacity ahead of the new season, while officials approved the first 10 Hurricane Beryl vessel loans under a $2.8m recovery programme. Trade & Border Modernisation: Central Bank seminar speakers pushed for faster border and customs upgrades plus better real-time data sharing to reduce trade fragmentation impacts. Tourism Connectivity: interCaribbean Airways was named official airline partner for SOTIC 2026, offering delegates and CTO members a 25% flight discount to Georgetown. Construction & Jobs Linkages: A St. Kitts and Nevis high school build is already driving Barbados-linked precast concrete shipments, with talks underway on a local precast facility to support future projects.
