Welcome to the SKNCIC's
It is my distinct pleasure to serve as Chairman of the Manufacturing Division of the St. Kitts-Nevis Chamber of Industry and Commerce. Manufacturing has long been an integral part of our Federation, contributing significantly to employment, industrial development, and export potential. As our economy continues to evolve, the role of manufacturing remains critical in strengthening economic resilience, fostering innovation, and supporting sustainable growth.

The St. Kitts and Nevis Chamber of Industry and Commerce (SKNCIC), through its Manufacturing Division, hosted Manufacturing Week 2026 to recognize the vital contributions of the manufacturing sector while fostering stronger connections among businesses, students, and the wider community.
During the week, participants explored market access opportunities available through World Trade Organization (WTO) platforms, including the Integrated Database (IDB) and the ePing Tool. These resources equipped businesses with valuable trade information to support informed decision-making and help identify opportunities in new and emerging markets.
The week's activities concluded with industry tours of Demerara Distillers and Hibiscus Spirits, giving participants firsthand insight into local manufacturing processes and showcasing the innovative, high-quality products being developed within the Federation.
