- Descripción
- The potential effects of the US Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) on Caribbean food exports to the United States are discussed. We use trade data in order to elucidate trends and a theoretical Value Chain Analysis framework.Our results indicate that the US will continue to be an important market for Caribbean exporters and that FSMA will impose food-safety requirements such as traceability and third-party certification.However, this tightening of food safety standards may open a window of opportunity for Caribbean sustainable development since it encourages firms to place emphasis on quality as opposed to price-based competition.
