VENDOR REGISTRATION OPENS FOR NATIONAL TRADE SHOW – MADE IN TCI 2025

The Department of Trade, Industry, and Fair Competition will host the annual National Trade Show dubbed  “Made In TCI” on November 15, 2025 from 11:00 a.m to 8:00 p.m. at the Grace Bay Market Parking Lot, Grace Bay, Providenciales. This event aims to promote homegrown entrepreneurs who create goods and services that are locally produced, including categories such as catering services, hand-made jewellery, beverages, leather goods, home goods, arts and crafts, tobacco products, photography services, and events management services among other categories.

This year’s theme, “Stamped by Culture, Driven by Purpose,” draws inspiration from the fingerprint found in the event’s logo, a powerful symbol of identity and individuality. Much like a passport stamp grants entry at the airport, vendors at Made in TCI 2025 are symbolically stamped with recognition, signifying their official role in representing the spirit and creativity of the Turks and Caicos Islands. It reinforces that no two businesses are alike, and each leaves its own mark on the landscape of local entrepreneurship.
