BELMOPAN, Belize – September 8, 2022, marked a historic event and a forging of a business relationship between Belize and the State of Quintana Roo of the United Mexican States.
Two memoranda were signed by Belize and Mexico. The first memorandum was signed between the Corozal Free Zone and the Chetumal Industrial Park to facilitate collaboration between the two investment schemes and to collaborate on attracting investment and markets.
The second memorandum formalized the commitment between the ministry of finance, economic development and investment of Belize and the secretary of economic development of the State of Quintana Roo to establish a formal framework for inter-organizational technical cooperation and coordination, which will facilitate the implementation of activities:
a) Generate opportunities for investment and business;
b) Jointly develop regional investment programs and policies;
