Private Sector Commission, Grenada Tourism Authority to host expo, travel mission

The Private Sector Commission (PSC) and the Grenada Tourism Authority (GTA) on Thursday announced a strategic travel mission and the upcoming Pure Grenada Expo.

According to a PSC release, this initiative which is being led by Grenada’s Prime Minister Dickon Mitchell, aims to strengthen trade, commerce, and tourism ties between Guyana and Grenada.

The Pure Grenada Expo is free of charge to the public and will be held on August 29, at the Guyana Marriott Hotel, Kingston, Georgetown, from 11.00 hours to 17.00 hours. The event will highlight Grenada’s cultural heritage, spices, and tourism offerings, featuring rum and chocolate tastings, cultural displays, and exhibits.

The release noted that the mission coincides with the launch of a direct flight route between Grenada and Guyana by interCaribbean Airways, scheduled to begin around September 28. This weekly flight is expected to enhance trade, tourism, and cultural exchange between the two nations.

Chairman of the PSC, Komal Singh, described this collaboration as “a significant step in expanding our bilateral trade and cultural exchanges,” adding, “We look forward to the new opportunities it will bring.”

The PSC is urging local businesses and stakeholders to participate in the Expo as well as the strategic discussions that will be held during the mission.

Anyone needing more information can contact the Executive Director of the PSC, Nayteram Ramnarine, at (592) 614-4625 or ed@psc.org.gy the release added.
