Business Focus takes a closer look at both the manufacturing and distribution aspect of this thriving industry.

The Antigua & Barbuda Hospitality Training Institute has in recent times taken great strides in improving the art of service within the hospitality industry. A chat with Calvin Ambrose and Calvin Carr gives great hope for the industry in 2010 and beyond.
