The past year has seen an even bigger incarnation of the Trade and Investment Convention (TIC) from which many success stories have emerged. Our trade mission to the Dominican Republic served to expose the Manufacturing sector to yet another avenue for investment and expansion. We are proud to have initiated our Proudly Manufactured in T&T campaign, highlighting the treasures that are our local goods and services and instilling pride in the Trinidad and Tobago brand. This campaign is set to expand and it is our hope for it to seep into the National consciousness. The TTMA has recognised the changing economic climate and has lobbied for contingences at every turn to ensure the productivity and creativity of our over four hundred members are not adversely affected. We are reinforcing the Manufacturing sector- the second largest foreign exchange earning sector for Trinidad and Tobago and the second largest employer – helping to make the economy of this country stronger. The success of the Manufacturing sector is one we are proud to see being realised and the efforts of the Government and key stakeholders continue to be a key element in this achievement. We at the TTMA look forward to continuing to create value and provide world class service to you our members in 2018. 3
