President Ali Demands Local Manufacturing

President Irfaan Ali is sending a firm message to foreign companies: if you want to sell in Guyana, you must invest locally and build factories here, not just ship in finished goods. He’s tired of Guyana being seen as a dumping ground and wants it to become a regional manufacturing hub. With some of the Caribbean’s best incentives already on the table, there’s no excuse for companies to avoid local production. A new partnership with Banks DIH and Dominican firms is already turning this vision into reality, creating a food and snack manufacturing center right here in Guyana — backed by regional cooperation. While imports are welcome if they’re quality and affordable, the ultimate goal is to grow Guyana’s own manufacturing base. The bottom line? Invest, create jobs, build locally — or risk being locked out. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
