Nakima Williams promotes local products at trade forum

Nakima Williams, a local entrepreneur from Antigua and Barbuda, attended the UK-Caribbean Trade and Investment Forum in London on November 28, 2023.

The forum was a significant event for trade, designed to connect investors with public and private entities to encourage fruitful trade and investment partnerships.

Ms. Williams was chosen by the government of Antigua and Barbuda to exhibit her products at the forum. She has a track record as a consistent winner of Piango Fest from 2019 onwards, with the exception of a two-year hiatus due to Covid.

Piango Fest is celebrated for its emphasis on products made from locally grown pineapples and mangoes, and it has provided a platform for Ms. Williams to showcase her unique and flavoursome products.

At the forum, Ms. Williams presented a range of locally made products such as peppers, jams, jellies, and chutneys crafted from tamarind, papaya, raspberry and mango,
