Gov. gives exporters a tool for regional business

Santo Domingo.- The Dominican Government, through the National Competitiveness Council, on Monday provided exporters with a catalog with key information on the main routes, ports, agents and commercial operators between the Dominican Republic and the Caribbean.

Competitiveness director Rafael Paz said the catalog “shows the main trade routes between the Dominican Republic and the Caribbean. The compendium covers key information for all companies wishing to export to the Caribbean and constitutes a first contribution of the plan for a better use of the Caribbean market.”

The catalog includes information on the main routes, ports, agents, logistics operators, contact numbers of maritime and air service providers as well as routes frequency.

The tool was developed as part of the Caribbean Export Promotion Board coordinated by the Presidency’s Administrative Ministry, which includes the Export and Investment Center (CEI-RD); the National Exports Bank (Bandex); the National Business Council (Conep), the Industries Association (AIRD); the Dominican Exporters Association (Adoexpo); the Dominican Agribusiness Board (JAD), and the Dominican Port Authority (Apordom).
