MSMES urged to gear up for national reconstruction boom

Operators in the micro, small and medium enterprises (MSME) sector are being urged to prepare now to meet the upcoming demand for goods and services fueled by the national reconstruction programme.

State Minister for Industry, Investment and Commerce, Delano Seiveright, in making the call, noted that the rebuilding programme will generate substantial demand for construction, engineering, manufacturing, building materials, renewable energy, water systems, telecommunications, digital technologies, agricultural solutions and skills development.

He said that local businesses and service providers must ensure that they are prepared to capitalise on the opportunities.
