Saint Vincent and the Grenadines set for takeoff

The small archipelago nation of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, located in the southern Caribbean, had previously suffered from a lack of connectivity, but a new international airport opens up potential for increased tourism and as well as investment in sectors such as agriculture and services. fDi Magazine editor-in-chief Courtney Fingar takes a tour.

    Love the video. Thanks for doing an episode on this beautiful island. I'm still yet to visit, but one day I will. My parents are Jamaican, but we're all one big Caribbean family, no matter what island you are from. I 💘 the Caribbean.
