Nov 11 – Belizeans spend over $300,000,000.00 (three hundred million dollars) across the Mexico border every year. A Trade Mission to Belize by CANACO SERVYTUR CHETUMAL, the Chamber of Commerce of that city lead by Javier Aguilar, Head of Investment-Institute of Mexico was held yesterday in Belize City at the Mexico Institute. Approximately 19 Mexican companies from Chetumal Quintana Roo visited their Belize counterparts to identify trade, investment and business opportunities. Products being offered included: honey, edible and non-edible groceries; food for animals (pets, chicken, pigs, horses and fish); tools and hardware (every segment in the industry); ceramic tiles (clay) for floors, bathrooms and kitchens; electrical, plumbing and construction supplies (paints, concrete admixtures, sealants, steel); auto parts; office supplies, stationery and furniture; administrative and athletic uniforms, sports equipment, bicycle sales and parts, screen printing and embroidery; accessories for cell phones, cellphones and tablets; security cameras and devices, alarms and electric fences; medical equipment and accessories. Representatives from the Universidad Interamericana para el Desarrollo (UNID) in Chetumal also participated in this mission too, providing information about their broad array of EDUCATIONAL programs and opportunities for Belizean students. The mission also represented a great opportunity for the Belizean business community to establish contacts with the President and Board Members of the Chetumal Chamber of Commerce, Services and Tourism (CANACO SERVYTUR CHETUMAL). Representatives of the Chamber of Commerce announced their interest to explore the possibility of opening a BOXITO Hardware Store in Belize. The trade mission is also seeking opportunities in tourism and using Belize as a closer transit port of entry for the southern part of Yucatan, particularly Chetumal since their closest port is in Veracruz. The Mexican representatives deem the trade mission a success and look forward to strengthening trade relations with Belize.
