Caribbean Community (CARICOM) Secretariat
-Hot Pepper
In 2002, the Caribbean Export Development Agency (Caribbean Export), the Foreign Trade Promotion Centre of Cuba (CEPEC), the Caribbean Agricultural Research and Development Institute (CARDI) and the CARICOM Secretariat agreed to coordinate their resources to provide development support for the hot pepper industry. The Caribbean has always been a player in the international hot pepper industry and has been exporting fresh pepper and hot pepper sauces to the traditional markets of the UK, USA and Canada. The support centred on the preparation of a comprehensive industry report, the execution of market research in USA, Canada, UK, Costa Rica and Mexico and in the hosting of a strategic planning workshop.
