BAIC delegation visits Cuba

BAHAMAS Agricultural and Industrial Corporation executive chairman Arnold Forbes is heading a delegation of BAIC officials and private sector businessmen to Havana, Cuba.

The purpose of this visit, from November 4-11, is to explore trade opportunities in the solar energy, light industries, agriculture, handicraft and manufacturing sectors.

The delegation will also participate in the EXPOCUBA International Trade Fair with a view to scouting out technical co-operation arrangements with countries specialising in energy development and light industries.

During the visit, the group will tour farming communities and handicraft centres with a view to incorporating lessons from any success stories they find into the corporation’s methods – particularly in the development of the Family Island programmes.

At EXPOCUBA, the executive chairman will meet with the Cuban Chamber of Commerce and the Caribbean Export Development Agency.

The delegation includes: Godfrey Eneas, consultant in the Ministry of Agriculture and Marine Resources; general manager Benjamin Rahming; assistant general managers Donnalee Bowe, Arnold Dorsett and Judith Thompson; manager Alphonso Smith; and public relations manager Aarone Sargent.
