Business Development & Opportunities

The dominant industries in Linden are Bauxite, Gold, and Lumber. To support these industries, the communities have evolved to have a relatively higher education than the rest of Guyana, and is well supported by the Guyanese expats abroad.

Resilience and persistence is the name of the game in Linden, so an economic boom is expected when the basic projects are completed, international investments begin flowing, and expats combine forces with the local population.
