Dominica
Dominica
is the most northerly and largest of the Windward
Islands, situated between Guadeloupe and
Martinique.
Since 1978 it has been an independent republic within
the
British Commonwealth.
The principal economic activity in
Dominica
is agriculture, accounting for over a third of GDP and
employing 40-50% of the labour force. Bananas, citrus
and coconuts are the main crops. Tourism is slowly
expanding and the island expects to profit substantially
from the growing global interest in eco-tourism.
There is a small
but growing manufacturing sector which produces fruit
juices, bottled spring water, rum, furniture, garments,
footwear, electronic assembly, candles and paint.
There are several
tax incentives, including tax holidays, repatriation of
profits and withholding tax exemptions.
Dominica
has no railway. There are two ports,
Roseau
which has a deep water harbour, and
Portsmouth
which has a cruise ship berth. There is an airport at
Melville Hall 58 km from
Roseau,
and a smaller airstrip at Canefield, 8 km from
Roseau.
It is acclaimed as the
Nature
Island
of the
Caribbean.
