[Guadeloupe] Protests: Peaceful protest

Summary

Single-source ACLED detection — awaiting independent verification. Workers from Sotradom demonstrated in the Jarry neighborhood of Baie-Mahault, Guadeloupe on April 1, 2025, protesting announced layoffs. The protest was organized by the UGTG union and classified as peaceful with low severity.

Supply chain impact

No commodities or chokepoints are directly mapped to this event; second-order effects depend on how the situation escalates. If confirmed and if Sotradom provides critical services to Guadeloupe's logistics infrastructure, prolonged labor action could affect regional cargo handling or transportation networks.

Watch points

• Monitor for independent confirmation of the labor dispute and any escalation in protest activity
• Track whether the demonstration leads to broader union action affecting other sectors in Guadeloupe
