The Cost of Living: A Shared National Challenge

The rising cost of living affects every Barbadian household and business. While prices at the checkout are most visible, many of the costs are driven much earlier in the supply chain.

Hear from BCCI President Paul Inniss as he outlines the Chamber's call for practical, evidence-based solutions, including:

• Improving port and cargo efficiency
• Reviewing duties and charges on essential items
• Reducing energy costs
• Strengthening regional procurement
• Supporting viable local production

Meaningful and sustainable price relief will require collaboration among government, business, labour, consumer representatives, Customs and the Barbados Port.

🎥 Listen to President Inniss' full statement and join the conversation on practical solutions for Barbados.

Media Statement: BCCI STATEMENT ON THE PASSING OF THE RIGHT EXCELLENT SIR GARFIELD SOBERS

On behalf of the Council and entire membership of the Barbados Chamber of Commerce and Industry, I extend our deepest condolences to the family and loved ones of The Right Excellent Sir Garfield Sobers, National Hero of Barbados.

Sir Garry’s passing is a profound loss to Barbados, the Caribbean and the international sporting community.

Widely regarded as one of cricket’s greatest all-rounders, he carried the name of Barbados with distinction and became an enduring symbol of excellence and national pride. His extraordinary achievements inspired generations and demonstrated the impact that a Barbadian could make on the world stage.

As we mourn the loss of one of our nation’s greatest sons, we celebrate a remarkable life and an enduring legacy.

We extend our heartfelt sympathy to his family, friends and the wider cricketing fraternity.

May he rest in peace.

R Paul Inniss
President
