TIPS FOR SHOPPING FOR SOUVENIRS IN MONTEGO BAY JAMAICA

I was prompted to write this article after reading an article about Montego bay, Jamaica by a well known site that offers information about destinations around the world.In my opinion the site misrepresented our market vendors in Jamaica. This is what was written about Montego Bay, "Be prepared to be pursued by aggressive vendors. Vendors selling a craft item may mean the difference between having a meal or going hungry, and that situation often leads to a feverish attempt to peddle goods to potential customers, all of whom are viewed as rich. Warning: Occasionally this harassment turns ugly or even violent, so watch your back if you decide to turn it on an angry vendor." 
I wish to dismiss this over exaggerated frivolous report and defend our market vendors in Montego Bay, Jamaica who I know to be decent people trying to make a living and certainly not resorting to any violent behavior. As a traveled person, I visited Hong Kong in the 90's and there at Stanley Market in Kowloon if you touch a Higgler's product you have to buy it, and if you don't buy it, you get cursed in Chinese. (not stereotyping this was just drawing inference from my personal experience to make a point.)
Now with that out of the way, let me give you some tips about shopping in Mobay. If you have time for only one shopping complex, make it Old Fort Craft Park, as the vendors handicrafts here are more varied in that you have the option of purchasing both souvenirs and more serious gift items. This shopping complex with over 200 market vendors are all licensed by the Jamaica Tourist Board (JTB), and is located along the Howard Cooke Boulevard. Here you are able to purchase wall hanging pictures, hand-woven straw items, and wood sculptures. There are also skilled vendors who can braid ladies hair. 
Another option is the the Crafts Market located near Harbour Street in downtown Mobay, you can find a good selection of hand-made souvenirs from Jamaica, these includes straw hats,bags, wooden platters, straw baskets, musical instruments, beads, carved objects, and wooden carved Rastafarians.

PORTLAND - PORT ANTONIO

PORTLAND - PORT ANTONIO

I had a conversation recently with someone who lives in #Portantonio and he was moaning that the Jamaica Tourist Board (JTB) does not invest in #Portland when the parish has so much to offer. Does anyone want to comment on this?#jamaicatouristboard  # portlandtourism ##tourisminportland visit us at http://www.paradisepalmsjamaica.com

JAMAICA SMALL BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES IN THE RECREATION AND TOURISM SECTOR

Recently I noticed there are a number of people who are interested in starting a business in Jamaica who were making inquiries of what Jamaican sector they possibly "do a thing". I did some research and found that Jamaican Tourism has overtaken a number of other industries which props up the national economy, and as you guess tourism is Jamaica's single largest export industry. Another thing that I have noticed, over the last decade the profile of the travelers coming to Jamaica has changed. Previously, the travelers were predominantly from the top end of the market, however, the trend is now a flow of budget tourists who are looking for other aspects of Jamaica's unique lifestyle and our culture.

Saying all that to say that, most tourist facilities are run as a small business and, now more than ever presents unique opportunities for new innovative recreation services and tourism facilities, These opportunities I identify as:- Nature Based Tours and Eco-Tourism, Cultural Diversity and Heritage Tours & Excursions, Farmers diversifying their business base to include farm visits and explaining Jamaica Agriculture, the organisation of Special Events like Reggae Concerts/Cruise, Sporting Events Cooking Tours/Cruise.

From all these business opportunities I referred to would generate services opportunities such as Souvenirs and Tourism Products, Promotion and Marketing, Staff Training and Business Advice services. So to conclude, in my opinion, Jamaica does currently presents opportunities for persons interested in starting small business in the tourism and recreation sector.

JAMAICA RURAL TRANSFORMATION - A KEY STRATEGY FOR MOVING THE COUNTRY FORWARD


On my journey around Jamaica I am always intrigued to find out why the rural areas seem to lack resources whilst the urban areas seem to strive. My findings led me to believe that in the rural areas there are small scale ventures which seems to be limited mostly to agricultural products.As you are probably aware there are yearly hurricanes resulting in disaster. In my opinion, in order to combat the problem of the lack of sustainability of this sector (agriculture), Jamaica must begin to explore what I would refer to as rural industrialisation more thoroughly. 

I believe that this diversification of produce would possibly assist in increasing the resilience of the rural communities whilst increasing their contribution to Jamaica's Gross Domestic Product. This will subsequently help in reducing the levels of poverty which is evident and prevalent in  Jamaica's rural communities.

I urge my readers to consider the importance of this strategy as not simply rural development per se, however to consider the wider implication of  us working to improve the quality of life of the rural residents in Jamaica as well as having a complete transformation of areas. The nature of this transformation I believe would embody how these residents do business, the types of business, and the general attitude of policymakers towards the rural communities.

I conclude with the implementation of these strategies that in the next 50 years or so Jamaica's development could be monumental for our rural communities if we as a united nation make rural transformation a priority in Jamaica.

JAMAICA - WHATS THE FUSS ABOUT? YOU DON'T KNOW UNTIL YOU GO!!

JAMAICA - WHATS THE FUSS ABOUT? YOU DON'T KNOW UNTIL YOU GO!!

Ok, let me tell you what the fuss is about in #Jamaica. Jamaica is loaded with lively and reserved beaches, waterfalls, museums and populated by #Rastafariansjamming reggae sounds played by the locals, Jamaica is also one of the hottest Caribbean destinations for both holidays travelers and those staying a day on cruise ships. Jamaica is the birthplace of icons such as #BobMarley and #UsainBolt and many flocks to the homeland of these international talents to see what all the fuss is about. #MontegoBay (#Mobay) is the main tourist city and close to miles of resort lined beaches in Negril and Ocho Rios both of which are very popular vacation destinations Resorts. You will enjoy the beaches and water sports at these resorts. The interior of lush mountains and historic plantations is another "fuss", so is shopping for handicrafts, Jamaican rum and dutyfree souvenirs. PPJTours daytrips involves boat trips, scuba diving, tours of coffee or sugar plantations, or a tour of Mobay or Negril to check out its colonial highlights. You would have seen in my previous posts traditional fishing villages such as Port Antonio and attractions like Dolphin Cove. Jamaica is fantastic value for the money and our locals are very hospitable. Jamaican food is a big part of our life and eating outside from beach side huts where jerk chicken and fresh seafood. Music is another big part our Jamaican life and travelers will hear it everywhere. http://ow.ly/i/4tlfF Chat with us or visit us at www.paradisepalmsjamaica tours.com

JAMAICA EPITOMIZES THE BEAUTY OF THE CARIBBEAN

JAMAICA EPITOMIZES THE BEAUTY OF THE CARIBBEAN

Visitors to the third largest island in the Caribbean, #Jamaica will be charmed by the warm sunshine, beautiful beaches, rivers and streams that gush from ravines, lush tropical scenery and majestic peaks of mountains. On the inland, butterflies and delicate hummingbirds take to the air, and crocodiles still lives in and around the mangrove swamp in the South of the island. Much of the #Jamaican land is extremely fertile and produces crops for local use and also for imports such as bananas, sugar, yam, ackee and coffee.
