The Living Registry + CRAIG
The Living Registry is a planned CAYAB service and has not yet launched as a digital registry. The current entry point is an email-based launch list. The future service is being designed as the first layer of CRAIG, CAYAB's proposed trusted digital infrastructure for Caribbean agrifood. CRAIG is not yet an approved CARICOM platform.
Email CAYAB to record your interest and receive updates. No registry account or profile is created yet.
Choose consultations, learning, enterprise, employment, research or future supplier pathways.
If you opt in, future CRAIG services may help you add authorised evidence of skills, production, business or compliance.
See the requirements for approved programmes and what support may help close readiness gaps.
Apply through the responsible buyer or programme, which retains every eligibility, procurement and award decision.
Launch-list interest, future Living Registry membership, verification, procurement eligibility and contract award are separate stages. Registration does not guarantee verification, funding, market access, a contract or an award. CAYAB's LAFP and CRAIG remain proposals subject to consultation and formal approval.

Agriculture needs coders, creators, engineers, analysts, pilots, communicators and entrepreneurs—not only producers.
Forecast demand, spot risks and turn information into better decisions.
Map farms, monitor crops and support climate-smart production.
Help farmers find buyers and respond to procurement opportunities.
Use digital records to show where food comes from and build buyer trust.
Improve aggregation, cold storage, transport and last-mile delivery.
Build tools for payments, credit, insurance and stronger farm businesses.
