This he said can only be done by deliberately targeting the productive industries, particularly those in the manufacturing sub-sector.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur private sector, which is made up mainly of MSMEs is one of the most dynamic sectors with great potentials for sustained growth. Hence, my Ministry remains fully committed to providing the necessary support through policy and strategy measures such as the \u201cMade in The Gambia Strategy\u201d to help the private sector in positioning itself in the global economy for inclusive growth and Economic Development.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He pointed out that the \u2018Made in The Gambia Strategy\u2019 is aimed at providing a coherent and integrated strategic lens that will guide the government and all stakeholders in the manufacturing sub-sector to deliver the development results as envisaged in the National Development Plan (NDP).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI wish to implore each and every one of you to contribute in shaping this guiding strategy for promoting the national brand \u2018Made in the Gambia\u2019 to help achieve the aforementioned objective for our shared benefit as a country,\u201d DPS Gaye stated.<\/p>\n<p>AbdouTouray, a representative from UNDP noted that people live in a very competitive society, in order to have a positive balance of trade they need to produce to compete in the world.<\/p>\n<p>He pointed out that any products they produce, they should add value to it, and they should build their capacity to be able to produce. Made in The Gambia is long overdue noting that they should be proactive towards the implementation of this important strategy.<\/p>\n<p>Fabba Jammeh, Director of Industry and Investment at MOTIE, noted that the strategy is timely as it would enable them to critically look at the trading needs both nationally, regionally and internationally.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/gambia\">Gambia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Gambia.
