Costa Rica has moved its tourism PR account to Coral Gables-based Cheryl Andrews Marketing Communications, following a review.


costa ricaBurson-Marsteller previously handled the work.

The Tourism board of Costa Rica released an RFP late last year for a two-year, $360K pact covering the U.S., Canada, Europe and other markets.

Ireth Rodriguez, deputy manager and marketing director of the board, called it a "thorough search," noting CAMC has a "keen understanding of the distinctiveness of our country."

Costa Rica wants to be seen as a leader in sustainable tourism and stand out among Central American and Caribbean destinations.
