Guyana to be showcased at trade shows in NY and Toronto

Guyana will once again showcase its beauty and potential at this year’s Trade Show and Tourism Exhibition slated for June 21-23 in Toronto, Canada and June 28-30 in New York.
The main objective of the expo is to give overseas-based Guyanese and other interested parties, the opportunity to see the products and services that are now available for sale, investment, and development.
The event, which will also highlight Guyana’s tourism potential, is slated to add to the celebration and observance of Guyana’s 47th independence anniversary.
Participants will be selected from all sectors within the various service industries, including banking, building, manufacturing, hospitality, tourism, trade, housing development, transport, and public services.
They are expected to provide information to those who may be interested in purchasing land, extending property, establishing bank accounts, and acquiring loans, information on taxes, rates, national insurance, trade and investment possibilities.
This three-day event, which will be given publicity around the world, will give Guyana an opportunity to present itself as never before. Guyana Times International was told that the Guyana Trade Show and Exposition will give every sector in the Guyanese economy an opportunity to showcase each individual business operation and their ability to provide information that is quite often difficult to obtain in normal circumstances.
It will also provide a platform for manufacturers to showcase their products, while setting the stage for the establishment of a supply chain for their products and services.
Bankers will have the opportunity to interact with customers who have issues and questions in relation to accounts, and persons seeking to get their retirement or other funds transferred home. Hoteliers and tour operators will be able to highlight their facilities and packages, while the housing developers will also get the opportunity to market their brands.
The public service sector will be able to provide first-hand information through agents from agencies such as the Guyana Revenue Authority, Guyana Power & Light Inc, the National Insurance Scheme, the Mayor and City Council of Georgetown, and Housing and Water Ministry.
