Company description
The Shipping Association of Guyana is a private organisation that represents the shipping industry in Guyana, including terminal owners, shipping agents and shipowners.
SAG acts as the liaison between operators and relevant Government agencies, particularly the Maritime Administration Department (MARAD). The Association is now recognised as the institution responsible for consultations with relevant agencies for improved infrastructure, reframing laws, and requirements regarding all aspects of shipping.
Originally, the Association functioned as an employment company and dealt with matters pertaining to labour relations, which were impacting Wharf Operators, who were then represented by the Waterfront Branch of the Guyana Labour Union (GLU).
Following an examination of the issues that  
Show more were facing the sector and the needs of the members, it was realised that strategic changes were needed as it related to establishing legitimacy; networking opportunities; exchange of information; industry representation; enhancement of services while exploring new opportunities and technology; customised services; knowledge of new business opportunities and/or new imminent threats; training and updated technology inclusive of business enhancement techniques.
As a result of these considerations, a number of short-term goals were arrived at within the context of the Maritime Transportation Sectoral Objectives contained in the National Development Strategy of 2000 as well as a plan for the development of the Ports and Shipping industry in Guyana.
SAG is strategically positioned in its functional role to impact the development of the ports and shipping industry in the Co-operative Republic of Guyana and is the country’s bona fide representative in within the Caribbean Shipping Association.
