JBDC Micro Business Sensitisation Session 2026
The Jamaica Business Development Corporation (JBDC) invites micro and small agro-processors to register for the 2026 Micro Business Sensitisation Session (MBSS), taking place across three locations in June and July.
Under the theme Tech-powered Agro-Processing: Innovate, Produce, Profit, this year’s sessions will explore how entrepreneurs can leverage technology, innovation, and strategic partnerships to strengthen and scale their businesses.
Agro-processing continues to be one of Jamaica’s fastest-growing industries, transforming raw agricultural products into value-added goods for local and export markets. From beverages and sauces to jams, snacks, and liqueurs, the sector presents significant opportunities for growth and profitability.
Participants will gain practical insights from industry experts and partner organisations on topics including:
- AI and automation in agro-processing
- Packaging innovation
- Quality standards and compliance
- Access to modern equipment
- Business continuity strategies
- Market linkages and market access
Attendees will also have the opportunity to network with representatives from our partner organisations, including Adtelligent, National Commercial Bank, Tax Administration Jamaica, and the Companies Office of Jamaica.
