Puerto Rico Seeks Heftier Trade Ties with Trinidad & Tobago

Puerto Rico is said to be one of the countries in the region that now suffers from a critical trade imbalance, therefore the island nation is now seeking to increase trade in goods and services with Trinidad and Tobago, Barbados, and other countries in the region.

Communications, transportation, and technology are some of the areas identified for a boost. On other matters, Puerto Rico continues to enjoy a healthy relationship with Trinidad and Tobago.

Puerto Rican authorities are also hoping that the Caribbean Single Market and later the Caribbean Single Market and Economy will bring improved benefits to Puerto Rico.

The U.S. Commercial service of the U.S. Embassy and the American Chamber of Commerce in Port of Spain, Trinidad has been working along with the Puerto Rican trade mission.
