People love to hear “Thank you for your hard work.” Those six words can make anyone feel valued and appreciated. The Jamaica Manufacturers and Exporters Association (JMEA) Manufacturers and Exporters (M&E) Awards is built on this premise.

The annual event is the association’s way of lauding members for their outstanding successes while championing Brand Jamaica.

And this year was no different! Hundreds poured into the Jamaica Pegasus ballroom last Saturday for the James Bond-themed event which included cocktails, remarks from President Sydney Thwaites and VM Group President and CEO Courtney Campbell, dinner, and an awards presentation.

Page 2 wraps coverage.
