PortMiami representative joins Jamaica Agri-Business Investment Forum

PortMiami’s Global Trade and Business Development representative, Sonless Martin, joined regional leaders and international stakeholders at the Jamaica Agri-Business Investment Forum 2025, held in Montego Bay.

The high-level forum brought together government officials, business executives, and investors to explore new opportunities for growth in Jamaica’s agricultural sector. Discussions centered on agribusiness as a key driver of economic expansion, food security, and trade diversification.

Martin attended the event alongside City of Miramar Commissioner Maxwell Chambers and Jamaica’s Consul General to Miami, Oliver Mair, underscoring the strong business and trade links between South Florida and Jamaica.

“PortMiami is committed to supporting global trade connections that strengthen economic development across the Caribbean and South Florida,” Martin said. “Agribusiness is a critical pillar of sustainable growth, and this forum provided valuable opportunities to explore new partnerships that benefit both regions.”

The forum showcased innovative strategies in farm production, supply chain development, and export readiness, reaffirming Jamaica’s position as a regional hub for agribusiness investment.

PortMiami, known as the Cruise Capital of the World and one of the busiest cargo ports in the United States, plays a pivotal role in connecting the Americas and fostering international commerce.
