Jacmel's urbanization has been increasing in large part due to economic finance generated through tourism.
Royal Caribbean, the leasing tourism company whose cruise ships regularly dock at Labadee, plans to add stopovers to Jacmel.
In February 2007, Edwin Zenny became the city's newly elected mayor.
In addition, the Jacmel Film Festival is held there annually.
On January 11, 2010 Choice Hotels announced they would open a 120- room Comfort Inn in Jacmel, the first chain hotel to be opened there in a decade.
