CARICOM BUSINESS - Businesses need to brace for Post-COVID - Cox

Jan 09, 2026

"The Region’s business community is being encouraged to engage in detailed strategic planning in an effort to prioritize recovery opportunities in their re-opening strategies. Speaking at an FAO sponsored webinar under the theme “Enabling agricultural investment in the Caribbean for an effective response and post-COVID-19 recovery” on Thursday, CARICOM’s Assistant Secretary-General Joseph Cox pointed out that regionally, there is no food shortage but a misalignment of supply and demand which is compounded by a dysfunctional price mechanism."
