Destination Guyana for international trade mission

A group of people are standing around talking to each other in a room.

We’re on a business mission with the Caribbean Council to develop new links with Guyana.


Our Business Relationship Director Sean Burchell has joined a delegation to the South American country’s capital Georgetown.


The trip – held in partnership with the Department for International Trade and the Georgetown Chamber of Commerce and Industry – aims to forge cross-Atlantic links and develop business opportunities.


Sean is pictured rubbing shoulders with the British High Commissioner Jane Miller and the President of Guyana Dr Irfaan Ali at a reception at the High Commissioner’s residence.


We’ve exported to more than 140 countries to date, including more than 400 buildings in the Caribbean where we started developing 50 years ago.

Our structures have survived the many hurricanes to strike the region, including the devastating storms of 2017 when all of our buildings remained standing.


The Co-operative Republic of Guyana is a former British colony on the northern coast of South America, between Venezuela and Suriname, with a population of nearly 800,000 people.


The Caribbean Council is a London-based membership organisation working to build beneficial relationships and two-way trade and investment between international companies and their Caribbean and Central American partners.


It has been a privilege to join the trade mission to explore business opportunities and ways to support economic development in the country.



Many thanks to the Caribbean Council, the GCCI and DIT for the opportunity to take part along with fellow delegates from BHM Co Ltd, Caribbean Trading Limited, Castlegate Education, Concrete Canvas, Crown Agents, DLT Solutions, Geest Line Limited, Ordnance Survey, Parker Plant Limited and Space Zero.
