Belize High Commission becomes 1st tenant of World Trade Centre Georgetown

The High Commission of Belize in Guyana has announced that it has become the first tenant of the World Trade Centre, Georgetown (WTCG).
“The Government of Belize is represented in Guyana via the High Commission of Belize to Guyana (HCBG). In recognition of the bilateral friendship and the importance of trade, the Government of Belize decided to establish the HCBG in the World Trade Centre, Georgetown (Guyana), on June 1, 2025. The High Commission of Belize has the distinction of being the first tenant of the WTCG,” the Commission noted in a brief statement on its Facebook page.
It noted that this is a true signal of the Government of Belize’s commitment to public and private sector collaboration between Belize and Guyana.
The WTCG is the first WTC in the Caribbean Community (CARICOM).
The WTCG is a state-of-the-art building offering modern office spaces and amenities, 24-hour physical and cyber security, conference facilities, and access to over 300 World Trade Centres in over 100 countries worldwide that can stimulate and promote the marketing of goods and services, contributing to the expansion of regional and global trade.
The Demerara Distillers Limited (DDL) is one of the leading manufacturing companies in Guyana and the official licence holder for the WTCG. The DDL is a public company delivering a diverse range of products and services, including the world-renowned El Dorado rum.
The WTCG is being officially launched this week, and in commemoration of this achievement, the DDL has created a limited edition: World Trade Centre Georgetown Special Blend commemorative rum.
The DDL has established a diplomatic duty-free shop in the WTCG, and today Belize’s Ambassador Gale Miller Garnett received a bottle of this special blend, which she plans to keep unopened for posterity.
