Business Outlook 2013

The year 2012 marked a trying one for the Business Community, as they experienced various economic, political, and social issues. One of those especially noteworthy challenges was the abrupt Trade License increase which came upon us at the end of the year. Moving into 2013, the BCCI persists in advocating for the review of the trade license increase and at the same time the Business community continues to be affected by the prevalence of crime, stiffening business and the holistic development of the country. The BCCI hears the cries of the Business Community and plans to come stronger this year. 

On January 18, 2013, Mrs. Kim Aikman, CEO of the Belize Chamber of Commerce & Industry along with Mrs. Claudette El Ters, Treasure of the BCCI Executive Council were on Open Your Eyes Morning Show and discuss the Business Outlook for 2013.
