TIER 1

Global Trading

Tier 1 covers those companies with at least US$10 million in exports in 2020.

TIER 2

Quality Infrastructure

Companies in Tier 2 exported between US$5 million and US$10 million.

TIER 3

Export Innovation

Those in Tier 3 had US$1 million to US$5 million in exports.

TIER 4

iExport

Those with between US$150,000.00 and US$1 million fall in Tier 4

TIER 5

Export Academy

Tier 5 includes all those companies that exported less than $150,000.00.

Export Barbados (BIDC) will work with the companies in each tier to help
them grow their exports and move to the next tier. It is expected that over time,
many of the existing exporters will be equipped and empowered to reach Tier 1,
thereby causing a reorientation of the pyramid.
