Bryan explores ‘exchange of sand’ with St. Vincent and the Grenadines on boondoggle

KINGSTOWN — Governor Albert Bryan said today that he “has successfully completed his trip to St. Vincent and the Grenadines and also visited Barbados.”

During the visit, Bryan said he met with Saboto Caesar, minister of agriculture for St. Vincent and the Grenadines.

They talked about the potential for increased produce exports from St. Vincent to the Virgin Islands and the emerging opportunities within St. Vincent’s cannabis industry.
