AGP Executive Report

Last update: 19 minutes ago

Airport Works: Cemex has started the first phase of a multimillion-US-dollar apron reconstruction at Norman Manley International Airport, in eight phases to keep NMIA operating; the project is supporting 154 jobs and includes work by local subcontractors. Roads & Infrastructure: The Works Ministry says SPARK’s main roads component will begin this month, with $25b earmarked to rehabilitate 37 priority roads, as Robert Morgan targets completion by 2028. Inflation & Food: Finance Minister Fayval Williams says inflation’s driver has shifted from transport to drought-hit food prices, with August inflation at 7.9% after earlier spikes tied to oil. Tourism Trade & Growth: JAPEX 2026 closed with 423 delegates and 1,394 meetings, while Bartlett’s Tourism 3.0 agenda pushes 10m visitors and US$10b earnings alongside new rooms, airlift and cruise expansion. Energy & Investment: MPC Caribbean Clean Energy has signed to sell its San Isidro solar interest in El Salvador for US$3.27m, with closing expected by Q1 2027. Workplace Safety: A trade unionist says the long-delayed OSH Bill is “bordering on scandalous,” pointing to recent construction-site deaths. Skills & Tech: Jamaica’s five-person team heads to WorldSkills Shanghai (Sept 22–27) competing in technology-driven disciplines.
