The Market Information Organization of the Americas (MIOA) is a cooperation network comprising government institutions or those institutions so delegated by the government, whose principal functions and aims are collection, processing, analysis and dissemination of information relative to markets and agricultural commodities 

The main goals of the MIOA network are:

• To promote cooperation among the member institutions and to facilitate the exchange of knowledge and experiences in the collection and dissemination of market information.
• To assist in the creation of standards for terminology, methodology and technology to be used within the network.
• To facilitate the timely and consistent exchange of market information among the institutions of the member countries.
• To serve as a channelling point and to create a multiplier effect for financial support from the international aid organizations.

The Bahamas joined the MIOA in September 2009.
