Richard Coe,

Co-chairperson,

Expo Jamaica:

"It's full of features for the family and for patrons to come and enjoy. It's not simply for business; it's for all Jamaicans to learn about Jamaican products."

Elon Parkinson,

Regional Communications Manager,

Digicel:

"Because it will take a high-tech focus in demonstrating to everyone how technology is helping to provide the products and services they consume."

Aswad Morgan,

Co-chairperson,

Expo Jamaica:

"With the involvement of the JEMS and with the current exhibitors that we have, it will actually show the significant importance that Expo Jamaica plays in contributing to the development of the Jamaican economy."

Imega Breese McNab,

Executive Director,

JEA:

"It remains the strongest and only platform in Jamaica to do business and expose Jamaicans to products made in Jamaica, by Jamaicans, for Jamaicans, to be taken to the rest of the world."

Berletta Henlon Forrester,

Sales and promotion manager,

JAMPRO:

"For the first time, we will have more than 600 buyers participating in Expo Jamaica, and when you put 600 buyers together with more than 350 producers of excellent Jamaican goods and services, you have a winner."

Ricardo Durrant,

Manager, sales and promotion support unit,

JAMPRO:

"It will be a rich experience to engage, connect and do business, and when you have more than 350 exhibitors on the floor waiting for persons to come and engage them and all the possibilities that come from that, I think we are going to have a very good show. I know the exhibitors, in particular, will enjoy the experience with the linkages and, of course, our international buyers coming in."
