The Island Good brand has taken hold with 70+ licensees and growing! While the brand started with food and beverage, and continues strong in this category, local manufacturers are also seeing benefit as the importance of supporting local producers for product security becomes more prominent. At the same time, what some have called ‘the corona-coaster’ has presented its own set of challenges.
Find out how Island Good producers have been faring and where they are heading now at the State of the Island Economic Summit, taking place virtually this October 27-29.
The ‘Entrepreneurs Panel featuring Island Good Manufacturers’ will present on small, local businesses tied to sustainability and minimizing carbon footprint as well as those who were able to shift and adapt to better utilize these trying times.
