Kentucky Businesses Interested in Trade with Cuba

Kentucky Businesses Interested in Trade with Cuba
By STU JOHNSON WEKU NEWS

Representatives from the Kentucky World Trade Center are taking a
business related trip to Cuba next month. Lexington council members
received an update last week of trade center activities. Center
President Ed Webb says area business leaders approached him about a trip
to Cuba. "Basically we said initially no because the embargo still
exists," Webb said. "It's still in place which means we cannot do any
kind of business activity except for humanitarian aid, which would be
medical and food supplies."

Center Vice President Sherry Mulkins says the October trip to Cuba will
include meetings with the Cuban Chamber of Commerce and local
entrepreneurs. The group from Kentucky includes representatives from
Alltech, Electro Dry, and East Kentucky Power. Mulkins says she
routinely gets questions from local business owners about when they can
start selling products in Cuba. "There's not any way to know," she
said. "That's actually the number one question I've been asked." Mulkins
says she anticipates such an opportunity to be sooner than later, based
on how quickly U.S.- Cuba relations are moving.

21 Kentuckians will head to Cuba during the week of October 19.
