Jamaica Revealed

Launched in 2012, Jamaica Revealed aims to diversify and improve the retail mix in downtown Jamaica through addressing the unmet retail and dining demands of the approximately 260,000 consumers who use downtown Jamaica on a daily basis. Jamaica Revealed takes place on an annual basis and brings property owners, business operators and brokers with an interest in the downtown Jamaica market together to receive exclusive information about investment opportunities and market potential. Attendees will be able to view over 40 available on-and-off-market commercial spaces in downtown Jamaica during and following the panel discussion. We welcome business owners in every retail category and strongly encourage restaurants, including sit down restaurants, chain franchises and independent eateries to attend this event. This is a unique opportunity for owners and retailers to see the huge dining and retail potential in downtown Jamaica. With over a quarter million visitors and only two dining options, there is tremendous opportunity for investors.
