Data and Analysis
The Caribbean Basin region has a robust and competitive hotel/restaurant/institutional (HRI) food service sector. Tourism is a key factor generating demand for U.S. products in the food service sector. Sales reached $2.28 billion in 2024, an increase of 4 percent from the previous year.
Six years after the conclusion of a regional biosafety regulatory project, participating Caribbean countries remain stuck halfway up the mountain and unable (at least for now) to reach the summit — a point at which the use of modern biotechnology is scientifically and cohesively regulated throughout the region.
The strength of Caribbean tourism continues to positively impact the region’s economy, with higher hotel occupancy rates, increased revenues per room, and greater spending on food and beverages. U.S. agricultural exports of consumer-oriented products rose from $1.54 billion in 2023 to $1.64 billion in 2024, marking a 6.5 percent increase.
