Caribbean Export, within the framework
of the 10th EDF RPSDP, has been
providing support the regional fashion
industry with the aim of increasing
international awareness and export
opportunities for the sector. With
a focus on export development,
marketing, and capacity building, the
Agency has facilitated the participation
of Caribbean designers in a range of
fashion-related events on the regional
and international front.
At the regional level, the Agency
has provided support to designers to
showcase their talent and the diversity
of the region in fashion and couture.
In June 2012, Caribbean Export
sponsored 11 designers from nine
CARIFORUM States to participate in
