Diagnostic Report of Dominica's Private Sector
September 13, 2022
The private sector in the Commonwealth of Dominica (COD) is a key contributor to economic development, national income and employment creation. In recent times, many Micro, Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (MSMEs) have been impacted by natural disasters, such as Tropical Storm Erika and Hurricane Maria, and the coronavirus pandemic. Therefore, Dominica Association of Industry & Commerce (DAIC) collaborated with the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) Multi-country Office for Barbados and the Eastern Caribbean and particularly its Project Office in Dominica to undertake a Private Sector Diagnostic (PSD) to assess the current state of the sector and provide recommendations for its growth and development.
