Jamaica is set to host the Caribbean’s leading travel conference at the end of next month.
The 2019 edition of the Caribbean Hotel and Tourism Association’s Caribbean Travel Marketplace conference will be held Jan. 29-31 at the Montego Bay Convention Center.
“Jamaica is synonymous with exceptional hospitality, world renowned culture and incredible beauty. We look forward to continuing to offer our participants a high quality program to engage with industry peers and promote travel to our region,” said Frank Comito, chief executive officer and director general of the CHTA.
The conference brings together more than 1,000 delegates from 26 Caribbean countries to meet with buyers from more than 20 markets around the word.
This year’s event is expected to see an increase in both buyers and suppliers, organizers told Caribbean Journal.
“I am very pleased to announce that Jamaica will once again play host to an important tourism event,” said Jamaica’s Minister of Tourism, Edmund Bartlett. “It is an incredible achievement for our country and I am certain we will reap significant benefits.”
