Barbados continues to rely on key trading partners for postcard imports in 2024, with Trinidad and Tobago, Canada, USA, UK, and Colombia leading the way. The high Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI) indicates a concentrated market, while the impressive compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.59% from 2020 to 2024 highlights sustained market expansion. However, the negative growth rate of -35.12% from 2023 to 2024 suggests a recent decline in import shipments, signaling potential challenges or shifts in the market dynamics.

The Postcard market in Barbados is projected to grow at a growing growth rate of 5.38% by 2027, within the North America region led by United States of America, along with other countries like Canada, Trinidad and Tobago, Jamaica and Bahamas, collectively shaping a dynamic and evolving market environment driven by innovation and increasing adoption of emerging technologies.
