SLTA’s Dexter Percil Honoured for Transforming the Caribbean Community

In a significant recognition of his contributions, Dexter Percil, Director of Global Marketing at the Saint Lucia Tourism Authority (SLTA), has received an official Proclamation from the Atlanta City Council.

This honour, one of the highest forms bestowed by a city, underscores his substantial impact on the community. The Atlanta City Council explicitly commended Percil for his exemplary professional accomplishments, impactful leadership, and steadfast commitment to advancing the Caribbean community.

An ACC spokesperson asserted that this honour not only highlights Percil’s role in elevating Saint Lucia on the global stage but also emphasizes his dedication to amplifying Caribbean culture and influence internationally.

This recognition signifies far-reaching influence, extending well beyond Saint Lucia, and is particularly notable in a major U.S. city with a vibrant Caribbean diaspora.

“I am incredibly proud to receive this recognition from the City of Atlanta,” Percil declared. “This proclamation is not merely a personal achievement; it is a powerful affirmation of the strength and influence of the Caribbean community.”

He further stated, “I share this honour with my dedicated team at the Saint Lucia Tourism Authority and every Saint Lucian and Caribbean national whose culture, creativity, and resilience inspire me daily. This acknowledgment fuels my determination to keep pushing boundaries, sharing our stories, and ensuring that Saint Lucia and the broader Caribbean community shine brightly on the global stage.”
