AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Tourism Waste Push: Good Humans 268 Inc. founder Joshuanette Francis is urging Antigua’s tourism sector to fund its own waste-management upgrades, proposing hotel, bar and restaurant contributions (about EC$10,000 each) toward a glass-to-sand machine and composting gear. UNESCO Milestone: The Antigua Naval Dockyard marks 10 years since its 2016 UNESCO World Heritage inscription, highlighting centuries of maritime engineering and the labour behind the site. Youth to Work: All Saints West held a career fair connecting students with trades, agriculture, agro-processing and culinary professionals, while a separate National Youth Parliament raffle backed free eye screenings and school support across Antigua and Barbuda. Sports Tourism Boost: Antigua and Barbuda prepares to host the Republic Bank CPL at Sir Vivian Richards Stadium (Aug 20–25), with four home fixtures for the Falcons and a “Come for the Fete, Stay for the Match” push. Hospitality Talent Abroad: Mixologist Auslando Davis wins a Tales of the Cocktail Foundation Global Beverage Scholarship to train in New Orleans. Banking for Athletes: ECAB launches the ECAB Game Changers Scholarship, offering up to EC$25,000 for student-athletes studying abroad. Maritime Risk & Sanctions: US sanctions target SeaLead Shipping-linked firms and vessels including the Antigua-flagged Paya Lebar; meanwhile, an Antigua-flagged cargo ship (VENTURO) was damaged in a Black Sea strike, underscoring shipping exposure. Regional Agri-Exports: Caribbean agri-firms say training isn’t enough—buyers, freight and market links are the missing pieces for getting products onto shelves. Cyber Fraud Warning: ECCB says up to 90% of money laundering cases are linked to cyber-enabled fraud and is rolling out consumer-protection and digital literacy measures.
