Mineral fuels, lubricants and related materials and Food were CARICOM’s top two intra-regional

imports and exports throughout the period 2001–2006 (Tables 1.6 & 1.8).

Imports9

CARICOM’s imports of Mineral fuels, lubricants and related materials increased from EC$1.4 Bn or

US$0.5 Bn in 2001 to EC$3.8 Bn or US$1.4 Bn in 2005 and decreased to EC$3.7 Bn or US$1.4 Bn in

The Region’s imports of Food from the intra-regional market expanded from EC$0.6 Bn or US$0.2 Bn

in 2001 to approximately EC$0.7 Bn or US$0.3 Bn yearly in 2005 and 2006. These commodities on

average accounted for 15.1 percent of CARICOM’S Intra-regional imports over the period with

percentage contributions decreasing from 18.6 percent in 2001 to 11.7 percent in 2005 and increasing

marginally to 11.8 percent in 2006.

Average Growth rates of Major Commodities:

Overall, imports of all the major commodities experienced positive average annual growth rate over

the period, 2001-2006. Mineral fuels, lubricants and related materials showed the highest average

annual growth rate, 20.5 percent. Crude minerals, inedible, except fuel reflected an average annual

growth rate of 12.1 percent and Machinery and Transport Equipment recorded 10.8 percent . Food

reflected an average annual growth rate of 3.3 percent over the period (Table 1.6).

8 Because of the all inclusiveness of the category “commodities and transactions n.e.s”, the analysis focuses mainly ofhighlighting the contribution of the other categories.9 For 2001-2004, data represent twelve of thirteen Member States. For 2005 and 2006 data represents all Member States

Table 1.13 shows that for the period 2003-2006, Trinidad and Tobago was the major source of

CARICOM’s top ten intra-regional imports. For imports of motor spirit (gasoline), diesel oil andkerosene type jet fuel, this Member State accounted for approximately all of CARICOM’s intra-

regional imports of these commodities over the period, 2003-2006. For CARICOM’s imports of

bunker ‘C’ grade fuel oil, Trinidad and Tobago was the top intra-regional supplier accounting on

average for 91.2 percent over the period. For gas oils (other than diesel) Trinidad and Tobago

dominated accounting on average for 96.9 percent of CARICOM’s intra-regional imports.

Domestic Exports

In 2006, CARICOM’s top ten intra-regional domestic exports accounted for 70.2 percent of its total

intra-regional domestic exports. Over the period 2003-2006, these commodities on average represented

55.7 percent of CARICOM intra-regional domestic exports. Of the top ten intra-regional domestic

exports the first five commodities in 2006 were:

• Gas oils (other than diesel oil) (EC$1,712.4 Mn);

• Motor sprit (gasoline) (EC$1,523.0 Mn)

• Kerosene type jet fuel (EC$778.1 Mn)

• Other fuel oils n.e.s. (EC$777.3 Mn ) and

• Cane sugar, raw (EC$110.4 Mn)

Collectively these top five commodities represented 64.8 percent of CARICOM’s total intra-regionaldomestic exports (Table 1.14).

Table 1.15 shows that over the period, 2003-2006, Jamaica and Guyana with average percentage

contributions of 28.5 percent and 22.0 percent were the top destinations for CARICOM’s intra-

regional domestic exports of gas oils (other than diesel oils). In 2003, Jamaica accounted for

EC$144.6 Mn or US$53.6 Mn or 28.5 percent of CARICOM’s domestic exports of this commodity as

compared to EC$527.0 Mn or US$195 Mn or 30.8 percent in 2006. The percentage contribution of

Guyana moved from 23.2 percent in 2003 to 20.5 percent in 2006.

For CARICOM’s intra-regional domestic exports of motor spirit (gasoline), Jamaica was the top

destination accounting on average for 48.2 percent while for CARICOM’s intra-regional domestic

exports of kerosene type jet fuel, Barbados with an average percentage contribution of 53.8 percent

was the top of destination. Jamaica was the Region’s top destination for domestic exports of other fuel

oils n.e.s. accounting on average for 59.4 percent of this commodity over the period.

i In theory, the merchandise trade statistics produced by one country should be the mirror image of the statistics published by its trade partners. That is, exports of Country A to Country B should be the same as Country B imports from Country A.By extension this implies that theoretically CARICOM’s intra-regional imports should equal to its intra-regional exports.However practically this may not be possible for a number of reasons. These differences reflect both legitimate conceptualdifferences between import and export statistics as well as genuine errors or discrepancies in the data.
