The National Development Foundation has announced the launch of their “Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME) Marketplace” on Friday, June 27 2025, under the theme “Connect & Grow”.

The objective of the MSME Marketplace is to showcase the diverse products and services of local entrepreneurs, encourage MSME networking, strengthen business linkages, stimulate support for local enterprises and highlight the critical role of MSMEs in driving economic growth and innovation.

The MSME Marketplace will feature creative displays from local entrepreneurs — from contractors and upholsterers to jewellery makers and food producers — highlighting the strength and creativity of Vincentian MSMEs.

The event runs from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. at the parking lot opposite the NDF’s new office, located at the St. Patrick’s Friendly Society Building on White Chapel Road, Kingstown, with MSME displays, free financial consultations and live music.
