Video gap on Caribbean supply chains
A targeted search found no new YouTube videos on 'Caribbean hotel supply chain 2026' in the last 48 hours, exposing a content gap for timely, platform‑based best‑practice sharing — that lack also signals an opportunity for operators to publish case studies and webinars. The scarcity suggests practitioners should lean more on direct forums and whitepapers for recent operational guidance. (youtube.com)
CHTA’s official YouTube channel lists only a handful of uploads with the most recent short clips dated about three months ago and individual event videos registering under 50 views. (youtube.com)) CHTA runs a regular live‑webinar program and hosts recordings on its site, including a "Linkages" webinar recorded on September 16, 2025 that targets hotel‑supplier relationships. (caribbeanhotelandtourism.com)) Independent consultancies have produced Caribbean supply‑chain videos recently—Collis Williams Global published content last week and a multi‑part series five months ago—but those uploads focus on regional trade networks and supply‑chain intelligence rather than hotel multi‑property inventory case studies. (youtube.com)) Global hotel groups are publishing procurement and supply‑management content through corporate channels: Hilton Supply Management says it serves more than 15,000 properties and has a sustainability video on YouTube, and Hilton published procurement‑strategy commentary in February 2026. (youtube.com)) Infrastructure moves that affect inter‑island logistics are underway—Jamaica’s Global Logistics Hub initiative cites roughly $9 billion in investments with plans to create about 100,000 jobs and includes more than $450 million in port and SEZ upgrades. (youtube.com)) CHTA published its full 2026 events calendar on January 26, 2026, and CHTA CEO Vanessa Ledesma has publicly urged strengthening regional logistics and linkages between hotels and local producers following CHIEF 2025.
