GRIT Activation Week – St. Vincent & The Grenadines 

About the GRIT Project 

The Caribbean Women Generating Resilient and Inclusive Trade (GRIT) Project is a four-year initiative (2025–2028) implemented by the Caribbean Export Development Agency and funded by Global Affairs Canada. Designed to increase the productivity, competitiveness, and export readiness of women-led businesses across the Caribbean, the project equips entrepreneurs with the tools, networks, and strategic insights needed to navigate trade barriers and access new markets. Through training, technical assistance, matching grants, trade missions, and market intelligence tools, GRIT empowers women-led enterprises to scale their businesses, create sustainable jobs, and lead the region’s green and digital transitions.
