The Factories Corporation of Jamaica (FCJ) has been directed to develop turnkey community micro-business parks islandwide as a means of creating more cost-effective operation spaces for micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs).

Mr. Holness said access to proper infrastructure, specifically purpose-built facilities, is a general challenge that businesses experience.

“The quality and availability of good real estate for business is a challenge, and the cost of getting access to this real estate is also a big, big challenge. Many businesspersons, particularly MSMEs, raise the issue of not having enough warehousing space. When they do find properties, the level of retrofitting that has to be done to make the property useful is sometimes overwhelming on the business,” the Prime Minister said.
