Barbados Manufacturers’ Association marks milestone, makes progress
The Barbados Manufacturers’ Association has a rich,
highly effective history.
In 2014, its milestone 50th anniversary provided op-
portunity for recommitment to the organization’s mis-

sector in Barbados through collaboration and maximiz-

A vision for local manufacturing and a commitment to
the growth and development of local manufactures is
the impetus behind the Association’s work. One of its
primary objectives and mandates continues to be the

ation’s flagship exhibition – and others that showcase
local products and talents are vigorously pursued.
