What does a showroom in the Panama International Merchandise Mart offer?

Statistics released by ECLAC, the World Bank, the
IMF and others prove that Latin American economies grew by between 4% and 5% in
2007. As a result, consumer spending is up. Panama is the trading and commerce
center of the region and is the home of PIMM. A showroom includes benefits, among
others, such as:

A location in the world's largest Merchandise Mart.

Financing of 40% of the purchase price over 2 years and financing of the 60% balance
for 20 years through a local bank located in Panama\'s famous International Banking
Center.

No tax on profits, and no corporate, sales or income taxes.

A "business-friendly" Visa policy, especially when compared with the U.S. and Europe.

Business incentives in a secure offshore domicile.

Location in a stable, dollarized Democracy.

Does the Panama International Merchandise Mart represent a profitable investment?

PIMM has been featured in Forbes, Fortune, Wall Street Journal, Japan Times,
Business Week China, Financial Times, India Today, El Mundo, ABC News and others.

Reynald H. Katz, CEO and President of PIMM states, "Do you need proof? We have
already sold over 800 showrooms.\" Katz explains why, "Manufacturers will have a
unique opportunity to be in permanent direct contact with Latin American wholesalers
that often cannot travel to the U.S. or other markets because of visa restrictions.
PIMM effectively gives Latin American, Caribbean and foreign wholesale buyers the
opportunity to purchase merchandise from thousands of manufacturers from around the
world under one roof. We have showrooms and offices from $2,500 per square meter,
which are a third of what you pay in Europe, China and the U.S. You won\'t find
anything at that price in Beijing, where you\'ll be paying $10,000 minimum. Or, in
other wholesale marts that offer showrooms at US$300,000 a year.\"

How do you reserve your showroom in the Panama International Merchandise Mart?

The PIMM site (www.pimm.com) is currently available in English and Spanish. From
either, you can go to "The Project/Project View or El Proyecto/Vistas del Proyecto"
and choose your building and showroom from PIMM's interactive floor plan. For more
