Currently in the process of enhancing its trade/business relations regionally and internationally to complement its rapidly increasing profile realized on account of Guyana’s new-found status as a major global oil producer, the Guyana Chamber of Commerce and Industry (GCCI) is preoccupied with, among other things, the strengthening of business ties, including trade partnerships, not least with countries in the hemisphere. On Thursday November 21, the GCCI met with the Brazilian Trade and Investment Agency, APEX-Brazil, to discuss the further strengthening of trade partnerships between the two countries.
