Region advised to produce, market breadfruit products

An award-winning chef is suggesting that Antigua and Barbuda and other Caribbean countries should invest in developing and exporting products made from breadfruit.

The Executive Chef at St Kitts’ Ocean Terrace Inn, Lynn Williams, said there is much revenue to be gained from exporting the products from the starchy fruit.

“There is a lot you can do with it. People make flour (which is gluten free), chips and other goods which can be shipped to the United States and other places,” he said.
