These efforts are expected to continue throughout 2019 into 2020.

DEXIA is in the process of developing various marketing strategies which will focus on capturing increase market share in these markets and other international markets. These efforts will continue to provide a steady revenue stream to our farmers and other citizens who provide various facilitation services to the supply chain. Hence, the effort of DEXIA directly benefits the rural economy and the economy of Dominica by extension.
