Jamaica can assist Guyana with ensuring that its food exports to the US gain accreditation for entry, according to the island’s Minister of Industry, Investment and Commerce, Aubyn Hill.
While oil and gas was on the agenda of a summit organised by the Georgetown Chamber of Commerce and Industry, the focus of a 38-member delegation of Jamaican business persons and investors was on areas of finance, agriculture, tourism and food export as Hill underscored the benefits of diversification.
“What you do is play to your strength… we leave Americans to play in the NFL and baseball,” Hill told reporters as he listed strengths his country can bring to Guyana, such as training and giving advice for the tourism sector and Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) running, along with agricultural investment.
