Global testing standards goal set for next year Article by February 18, 2021 Export-oriented businesses in Barbados, Dominica and St Kitts and Nevis will be offered globally standardised testing at domestic laboratories as early as next year, says Daniel Best, Director of Project Department at the Caribbean Development Bank (CDB). The CDB has partnered with the European Union (EU) and the CARICOM Regional Organisation for Standards and Quality (CROSQ) to upgrade labs, train staff, and in the case of St Kitts and Nevis, develop a national quality policy, all in an effort to ensure businesses can deliver globally recognised goods and services required for trade.
