The online Trade and Business Information Portal puts information at your fingertips

The Trade and Business Information Portal, which was launched by the Ministry of Trade and Industry on May 25th at the Trinidad Hilton will have a significant impact on the ease of doing business in Trinidad and Tobago, as it provides easy online access to a repository of valuable information on trade, investment and business in general. The Chamber is particularly pleased with the launch of the portal, as we have advocated for such a facility for many years as a means of improving the ease of doing business. In the words of Chamber Chief Executive Officer Ian De Souza, who delivered remarks, “The launch of this Portal, along with the work being done to meet other commitments under the WTO Trade Facilitation Agreement, sends a clear signal of the Ministry’s commitment to put international trade, and both local and foreign investment, at the heart of our country’s economic growth. From a private sector perspective, that is noteworthy and very laudable.”
