A month ago we reported on the visit from the Chetumal Chamber of Commerce to establish a strong and more balanced business relationship with Belizean business owners. Well today another trade show was held that echoed that objective. It was called the Tourist fair and tour operators, travel agencies and hotel representatives from Chetumal, Mahahual and Bacalar met at the Institute of Mexico. The hope is to encourage Belizean service providers to consider doing business in Mexico. The Mexican ambassador told us more:….

Mario Velazquez- Ambassador of Mexico

"It is just wonderful to have this kind of occasion when we can exchange Mexican entrepreneurs and Belizean entrepreneurs. When they meet together in that moment, they start to find that perhaps you have the ideas, the knowledge, the products that I need. The Canaco is a Mexican organisation of entrepreneurs. They are inviting Belizeans to come, to their premises in Mexico for making business in Mexico, selling Belizean products and services."

Noemi Conde - Hotel Representative

"Our hotels are trying to get more tourits from Belize. To make better relation with all the travel agencies and i'm pretty sure we can make business and to give good rates."

Elisa Preciado - Sales Rep. Turistica Maya

"Together we could make a package. Staying in Belize with you, going to San Pedro but then also visiting in Chetumal. So you get two countries in maybe 4 days. But we need the communication with Belize and with our friends from Belize. We get them every weekend for shopping, we want you to stay with us."

There were also presentations made by the Belize Tourism Board.
