[Haiti] Protests: Peaceful protest

Summary

Single-source ACLED detection — awaiting independent verification. On April 8, 2025, 115 former workers from the Industrial Development Company (CODEVI) held a peaceful protest in Fort-Liberté, Nord-Est, Haiti, demanding compensation and denouncing what they described as arbitrary firings potentially linked to salary increase requests. The protest targeted alleged abusive labor practices at the textile manufacturing facility.

Supply chain impact

No commodities or chokepoints are directly mapped to this event. However, if confirmed and part of broader labor unrest in Haiti's manufacturing sector, this could signal ongoing workforce stability challenges that may affect production continuity at industrial facilities in the region.

Watch points

• Monitor for additional labor disputes or protests at other industrial facilities in Haiti's manufacturing zones
• Track whether this incident escalates or spreads to other workers at CODEVI or similar companies in the Nord-Est region
