POSITIONING STATEMENT

The ADVENTIST Business Journal is a semi-annual magazine that aims to highlight businesses, business persons, practices and issues of note within the Seventh Day Adventist community. Along with offering a comprehensive directory of Adventist businesses by category and location, we will review local companies and interview various personalities, exploring both their corporate and spiritual perspectives. With the information we make available, we seek to encourage members of the SDA church to support other business and trades persons within the church family.

JAMAICAN MARKET

According to the SDA General Conference Office of Archives and Statistics, approximately 1 out of every 12 Jamaicans is a member of or affiliated with the Seventh Day Adventist Church. The ADVENTIST Business Journal, the only Magazine / Directory of its kind in Jamaica, caters to the spiritual and practical curiosities of a captive market – an extensive and ever expanding church population.

Magazine issues will be distributed through general magazine sellers,  Jamaica’s Seventh Day Adventist Churches and bookstores.
