Jamaica is the largest English speaking island in the Caribbean (area -4,411 sq. miles, about the size of Connecticut). It has a small, but diversified economy and natural resources.
Exporters may find good opportunities in Jamaica's tourism sector, the bauxite/alumina industry, agribusiness, utilities, infrastructure (roads, port facilities and telecommunications) and data entry. There may also be opportunities in niche areas, such as eco-tourism, health, tourism, film and music and other related activities. There has been notable development in the area of information technology over the last two years.
