The Taiwanese companies will join 70 local booths to display their products, and there will be exciting fun activities throughout the trade show, including Chef Orlando Cooking Show, Karaoke, Fashion Show, Face Painting, Bouncing Castle, and more.

TAITRA will also introduce the Taiwan Excellence Award winners whose high-quality innovative products will be imported from Taiwan, including laptops, tablets, a live streaming arm, conferencing cameras, a night vision recorder, a network camera, and much more. These products are all made by world-renowned Taiwanese brands such as Asus, Acer, AverMedia, D-Link, and Transcend.

Throughout the three-day event, TAITRA will facilitate opportunities for mutual exchange and collaboration between Saint Lucian and Taiwanese enterprises. This event not only provides local enterprises with the unique opportunity to meet and discuss possible business cooperation with Taiwanese delegates, but also facilitates closer trade ties between our countries and other countries in the Caribbean and Central America.
