As we strive to become a more sustainable country, we must often seek alternatives to our current practices and utilizing resources we already have, but do not use, in our environment. It is to those ends that the Belize Trade and Investment Development Service (BELTRAIDE) has sought to connect producers, developers, and consumers to develop the country’s seaweed industry. On Friday, November 8, 2019, a “Ministerial and Private Sector Seaweed Mission” was carried out where industry stakeholders were taken to a seaweed farm at Little Water Caye, Placencia in southern Belize. There, participating stakeholders learned of the marine algae’s benefits-which go well beyond the well-known seaweed drink-its challenges, and a potential seaweed industry in Belize.
