He delivered the message during the opening of the Buy BVI Trade Expo at the Multipurpose Sports Complex. “Not only do we not buy BVI, we don’t hire BVI. It’s about challenging ourselves through our own choices to be able to support our own local economy and empower ourselves and empower each other. So when you make a choice, choose BVI, Buy BVI, Promote BVI, Support BVI and empower BVI, and you will discover that things become even better for us,” he urged. The Buy BVI Expo continues to be a key platform for entrepreneurs to showcase their work and attract customers from across the territory.
