St. George, Grenada – 09 April 2026 – The Grenada Tourism Authority (GTA) continues to strengthen regional ties with a recently completed sales mission to Barbados. This mission formed part of a continuous effort to strengthen regional ties and ensure Grenada remains a destination of choice, not only internationally, but regionally.
The mission’s primary objective was to facilitate direct conversations with essential tourism stakeholders, including travel agents, corporate partners, and airline partners. These engagements allowed the GTA to evaluate the destination’s performance across various sectors while identifying new opportunities for growth in the luxury, experiential, and multi-destination travel segments. A key focus of the mission was the promotion of Grenada’s vibrant annual festivals, including Spicemas, the Grenada Chocolate Festival, and the newest edition; the Lobster, Lambie and Seafood Festival.
“These regional missions are critical to fostering the partnerships that drive our tourism growth,” Stated Mrs. Stacey Liburd, CEO of the GTA, “Our discussions with the Barbados Tourism Marketing Inc (BTMI) and other industry leaders have laid a solid foundation for future joint marketing initiatives and improved airlift connectivity, positioning Grenada as a multi-dimensional Caribbean leader”.
The GTA further extended its reach through strategic media engagements and a collaborative effort with airline partner Virgin Atlantic, the delegation facilitated a radio competition featuring a roundtrip ticket to Grenada as a prize, which generated significant excitement.
“Our mission in Barbados enables information sharing which gives agents the confidence to effectively speak about Grenada’s evolving products,” said Samantha Thomas, Marketing Executive at the GTA. “Through our training sessions and interviews, we saw an immediate surge in interest for our diverse accommodation sector and upcoming festivals. Providing these partners with real-time tools and event details ensures that the high demand we’re seeing translates directly into economic growth for Grenada.”
With a robust calendar of events ahead and a continued focus on regional partnerships, the GTA is determined to translate the momentum of this mission into sustained arrival growth. By bridging the gap between on-island experiences and regional travel trade, Grenada continues to elevate its profile as the premier choice for the discerning Caribbean traveler.

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy.
