US Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo yesterday met Guyana’s President Irfaan Ali to discuss opportunities to deepen the bilateral commercial relationship and formally announced that the Department of Commerce opened a U.S. Commercial Service office within the U.S. Embassy in Georgetown.
A readout from the US Department of Commerce said that this new office will provide on-the-ground support that can help promote inclusive economic growth. The two also discussed Commerce Depart-ment programming and technical support, such as the Commercial Law Development Program, that can support the development of Guyana’s business climate and help create a favourable environment for increased trade and investment between our nations, the readout said.
