Curtains go up on Vincy Expo 2017 tomorrow

Some of St Vincent and the Grenadines’ most talented entrepreneurs are preparing to showcase their products and services at Invest SVG’s inaugural ‘Everything Vincy’ Expo 2017.

The Expo will run over the Independence weekend (October 27 – 29) at the ET Joshua Airport site in Arnos Vale, and is designed to increase the visibility of local businesses as part of an overarching ‘Buy Local’ campaign.
