“There’s a lot of possibility for tourism investors in Trinidad and Tobago”
Christopher Lewis, President, InvesTT

InvesTT recently held discussions with senior representatives of some key local tourism industry stakeholders to identify areas of collaboration on the identification and development of investment sites which will lift the attractiveness of Trinidad and Tobago as a tourism destination.  Stakeholder entities included the Ministry of Tourism, Ministry of Trade and Industry and the newly established Trinidad Tourism Limited.

InvesTT shared the outcome of their recent participation at the Caribbean Hotel and Resort Investment Summit (CHRIS) 2018 during May 16-18 in Miami, Florida. The event provided an opportunity to promote Trinidad’s tourism potential and to network with some of the world’s leading hoteliers, investors, developers and financiers. Out of the engagement, 14 meetings were held with potential hotel & resort investors, 68 new contacts were made, 3 new investment leads were obtained and several site visits are anticipated within the next 12 months from leading hotel brands interested in hotel properties in Tobago as well as Trinidad.



 

Local stakeholders are also passionate over plans for further development of the industry. The Ministry of Tourism is currently reviewing the country’s tourism product and benchmarking againstsimilar regional and international destinations in an effort to enhance its attractiveness. Other current initiatives include improvements to existing industry regulations and data collection, review of national tourism policies as well as a review of the current suite of tourism project incentives to ensure we remain competitive.  

InvesTT welcomes enquiries on investment opportunities in Trinidad and Tobago’s tourism industry. Local  property owners who own land or existing hotels suitable for tourism projects, and international companies who are interested in exploring business relationships in this field are invited to set up an appointment with a member of our team at +1 (868)
