THE Guyana Manufacturing & Services Association (GMSA), on Wednesday, hosted a delegation of entrepreneurs participating in a Brazilian trade mission aimed at fostering business collaboration and exploring opportunities within Guyana.
The event brought together representatives from various sectors, including food and retail, healthcare, technology and security, engineering and construction, dental and medical, as well as advertising and visual communication.

During the meeting, participants engaged with GMSA Board Members to gain insights into the operational dynamics of Guyanese buyers, understand the country’s importation needs, and explore potential trade and investment opportunities. This initiative marks a significant step toward enhancing economic ties between Brazil and Guyana.

The trade mission was organised by Sebrae Roraima, a support service dedicated to micro and small enterprises in Roraima, Brazil. The objective of the mission is to build partnerships and identify avenues for collaboration with local businesses in Guyana.
Key figures present at the meeting included ICT Chairman, Zahid Khan, GMSA Board Member, Orson Ferguson, and Executive Director (ag) Govindra Raghubansi. Their involvement underscores the GMSA’s commitment to facilitating meaningful connections that can benefit both Brazilian entrepreneurs and local industries.

As Guyana continues to expand its economic landscape, initiatives like this trade mission play a crucial role in attracting international investment and fostering a diverse business environment. The GMSA remains dedicated to supporting the growth of local enterprises and enhancing the country’s trade relationships on the global stage.
