In recent years, Jamaican companies have developed an aversion to doing business in Trinidad.
In our twin studies, The Trinidadian Executive in Jamaica and The Jamaican Professional in Trinidad, we studied the first-hand experience of expats from both countries. Both studies debunked a number of myths which have prevented companies from even trying to cross borders, forgoing the legal benefits of CARICOM, CSME and the Treaty of Chaguaramas.
Many executives from both countries have fallen into the same trip.
If your Jamaican company is trying to make sense of the Trinidadian business landscape we may be able to be helpful.
There are specific findings from our research which may help shape the mindset of your decision-makers. Furthermore, we may also be able to answer some of the negative cultural questions you may have been asking regarding prejudice, favouritism and corruption.
We’ll help you notice positives you may not have considered such as the strength of Brand Jamaica, the work ethic of Jamaica and the practical benefits to resources such as the relative ease of acquiring foreign exchange.
These are custom studies performed for each company, done only by request. Call or contact us for more information.
