MESSAGE FROM THE MINISTER
MINISTER OF TOURISM, HON EDMUND BARTLETT
for the Christmas in July Gift Catalogue 2025
Christmas in July stands as a powerful testament to Jamaica’s boundless creativity and the ability of tourism to uplift our people. Each year, this event highlights the ingenuity of our artisans and manufacturers, providing them with a platform to access markets and secure orders well ahead of the festive season.
This magazine captures the very best of Jamaican enterprise. Within these pages are products that embody our culture, tell our stories, and reflect the craftsmanship that distinguishes brand Jamaica on the world stage. From hand-crafted treasures to innovative designs and culinary delights, they are not only items of beauty and function but also vehicles of economic opportunity for communities across the island.
I encourage all our corporate partners, hoteliers, and international buyers to make use of this unique catalogue—support our talented entrepreneurs, place your orders early, and invest in a future where Jamaican creativity fuels sustainable growth.
Through the Tourism Enhancement Fund and its Tourism Linkages Network, we will continue to create a supportive environment for small and medium tourism enterprises (SMTEs), while providing the visibility, capacity support and financing that enable inclusive growth.
Let this edition be your catalogue for action. Support Jamaica, buy Jamaican and partner with the people who make our brand unforgettable. The opportunity is here. Let us seize it together.
Hon Edmund Bartlett, OJ, CD, MP Minister of Tourism
MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN
AMBASSADOR ADAM STEWART, CD, Hon. LLD CHAIRMAN, TOURISM LINKAGES COUNCIL
The Tourism Linkages Council has, for many years, been committed to promoting growth, collaboration and opportunity across the tourism sector. Through its projects and initiatives, it seeks to strengthen the economy, foster connections among the industry’s key stakeholders and support the creativity of our people, enriching Brand Jamaica and highlighting experiences that leave a lasting impact on the sector.
I want to extend my congratulations to the Christmas in July team as they celebrate this anniversary. For eleven years, the tradeshow has epitomised innovation and excellence and just as it did at its inception, it continues to provide local artisans and small business owners with a vital platform to showcase their products, services and talents to an ever-growing and diverse audience.
Christmas in July has proven to be more than an event. It is a curated experience that celebrates the best of Jamaica, highlighting products and services of the highest quality as well as the creativity, resilience and vibrant spirit of our people. Not only has this initiative supported the success of countless local businesses but it has contributed to the strength and vitality of our economy and the tourism industry.
As our nation continues to shine on the global stage, we applaud the innovators who commit to pushing beyond the boundaries to create opportunities that uplift our communities and our people. Christmas in July is a celebration of Jamaican excellence and a reminder of the magic that happens when culture, creativity and commerce come together.
With 2025 coming to a close, there is no better time than now to reflect on the remarkable year we’ve had and commend the achievements of the sector. More than anything, we acknowledge the role connections and partnerships play in driving the success of Jamaican tourism.
Happy 11th anniversary and here’s to many more years of championing our people, their passions and their livelihoods!
One love, Adam Stewart, CD, Hon. LLD
