About Made in Belize

“Made in Belize” is a tradeshow and B2B event which the Belize Chamber of Commerce and Industry (BCCI) launched in 2018. The BCCI is a membership organization that examines the need for our members to connect with their customers and network with fellow providers, working towards the evolution of the private sector. We especially consider our micro and smaller businesses looking for unique opportunities to showcase themselves and promote their products and services. Thus, the “Made in Belize ” Tradeshow was born and has become a cornerstone event for our members.

This event brings together entrepreneurs, micro business owners, wholesalers, retail buyers and customers from all over the country at one key location. Since its launch, the “Made in Belize” has grown from 50 businesses participating in 2018 to over 100 exhibitors in 2023.

The “Made in Belize” Tradeshow also supports the Chamber’s continued drive for business development and sustainability – Buy in Belize, Build Belize.
