The two day event consists of pre-scheduled appointments between suppliers and buyers. An appointment clock informs and leads the buyers to their next designated supplier appointment at designated booths or locations. JAPEX 2021 is not a typical trade show, as the main objective is for suppliers and buyers to conduct negotiations that benefit Jamaica. Only companies within the specified registration criteria can attend the event; there are no daily passes or general attendance.
