Whatโ€™s the difference between having a website and having a website that works for your business? ๐Ÿ’ป

For Sian Cuffy-Young of Siel Environmental Services Limited, it meant giving customers a way to actually make purchases online.

After participating in a previous edition of VEAP, Sian put what she learned into practice by restructuring Sielโ€™s website and introducing an online shop where customers could seamlessly pay for courses and books.

Now, another group of Caribbean businesses has an opportunity to take its next step in e-commerce.

VEAP is back for 2026 with a new programme helping Caribbean MSMEs build and grow online stores on Shopify or eBay and reach customers in international markets. ๐ŸŒŽ
