Abstract

The growth of entrepreneurship in the Jamaican tourist industry has been a feature of that industry over the past three decades. Recent writings by such Jamaican tourism experts, such as Margaret Morris, have suggested that the explosion of the all‐inclusive concept in Jamaican tourism in recent years bodes ill for many small business people ‐ restaurant owners, craft vendors, taxi drivers ‐ establishments owned by small business people. Custom for these independent businesses will decline if more and more provisions are made within the hotels themselves.
