State Minister for Industry, Investment and Commerce, Delano Seiveright, says Jamaica is a stable, investment-ready and strategically connected business hub.

He made the statement at the Ireland–Latin America and Caribbean Trade Horizons Forum in Dublin, on Tuesday. 

The forum brought together ministers, investors and business leaders to explore export and investment opportunities between Ireland and Latin America and the Caribbean. 

Mr. Seiveright highlighted Jamaica’s improving macro-economic stability, declining debt levels, low unemployment, stable inflation and growing investor confidence, alongside an open investment framework with no restriction on foreign ownership or profit repatriation. 

He pointed to major investments in tourism and energy, as well as growing activity in manufacturing, logistics and agro-processing. 

The state minister also underscored Jamaica’s strategic location, strong logistics infrastructure and expanding digital services sector, positioning the country as a leading English-speaking near-shore destination in the Americas.
