Johnston County
Hospitality Association

Members of the JoCo Hospitality Association listen to speaker and influencer NC Tripping about the advantages of marketing with social media.

The Johnston County Visitors Bureau (JCVB), with approval from its governing board, has established the Johnston County Hospitality Association. This association brings together members of the local hospitality industry, including hotels, attractions, retail shops, restaurants, meetings, sports, and wedding venues, transportation providers, event and festival organizers, and other service-related businesses.

The association offers an exciting opportunity to collaborate with JCVB and fellow industry professionals throughout the year. Members can engage in discussions on industry trends, share ideas for advancing tourism in Johnston County, and network with key partners to strengthen the local tourism economy.
