The Caribbean Export Development Agency (Caribbean Export), a regional organisation of the Forum of Caribbean States (CARIFORUM), became operational on January 1, 1996. Caribbean Export's membership base currently consists of the fifteen (15) Member States of CARIFORUM. These are: Antigua & Barbuda, Bahamas, Barbados, Belize, Commonwealth of Dominica, Dominican Republic, Grenada, Guyana, Haiti, Jamaica, St Kitts and Nevis, Saint Lucia, Suriname, St Vincent and the Grenadines and Trinidad and Tobago. Discussions are presently in progress to expand the membership to include Cuba, the French DOMs and the Dutch OTCs.
Caribbean Export is governed by a Board of Directors from the public and private sector, as appointed by the governments of the Member States. The Board in turn is answerable to the CARIFORUM Council of Ministers as constituted by the governments of the Member States.
