TTMA Welcomes Budget’s Focus On Manufacturing, Export Growth And Economic Diversification

The Trinidad and Tobago Manufacturers’ Association sees its mission reflected in the roadmap outlined in Budget 2027.

TTMA President Emil Ramkissoon says the Association’s work supports the drive to strengthen local production, widen global markets, and chart a more resilient future for Trinidad and Tobago.

“In 2025, TTMA pioneered the first trade mission on the seas, taking 25 companies across six markets in one journey. It demonstrated that we can think differently about how we take our manufacturers into the world by reducing logistical barriers while reaching multiple markets efficiently. This initiative has now become part of our trade mission calendar annually, and I look forward to welcome you on board in 2027. This mission is vital for SMEs to spread their wings, especially when in doubt.”
