From the beginning, Caribbean International Group set out to do logistics differently. We had experience in the industry for years and knew that logistics in the Caribbean had long been too focused on the cruising industry. This left a gap, and for more than fifteen years, Caribbean International Group has been providing the region with a white glove logistics service that delivers for our clients.
A new approach to logistics
At Caribbean International Group, we take a fresh approach to logistics and deliver a service our clients love. Not only are our professionals' proven experts in the field, but they also know the region and have the contacts to make things move. Whether it is a hold-up at the port or a local permit that needs approval, the Caribbean International Group team can make magic. As well, as any logistics professional attests, the devil is in the details. Our team is one of the most detail-oriented outfits in the industry and will work with you to diligently check paperwork and plans to ensure no hiccups or delays could have been avoided.
Our commitment
Our commitment to our clients is to provide a one-stop white glove logistics experience that goes above and beyond the norm. We believe that Caribbean International Group should consistently deliver the following:
- Compromise-free high-quality solutions
- Professional care and assistance for all of our clients
- On-going and open communication with clients
- Sustainable solutions that work for the region
- Working with experienced suppliers and builders on the ground

Company History
Caribbean International Group (CIG) was founded by Kerwin H. George in 2012 who grew the company from humble beginnings to become an employer of 9 operating out of Dominica, Nassau, and Miami. From the beginning, we set out to do logistics differently. Our years of experience in the industry suggested that logistics in the Caribbean had long been too focused on the cruise industry. This left a serious gap, which we have been filling for more than 15 years.
Now we are known as a company that operates globally and embodies the mission statement of Caribbean Logistics and Supplies Made Easy. Caribbean International Group is your go-to logistics option and offers a Better Way to Supply Your Operations. The CIG Team has the expertise and knowledge to navigate local issues and provide the logistical support you need for your project. We are with you every step of the way to minimize your costs.
Our base of loyal, long-term clients come from many industries including Construction, Hospitality, Retail, Travel & Tourism and many more. We deliver for our clients and go the extra mile so that you can be confident that your project or location will have the goods you need when you need them. Over the years our reputation has continued to grow, and Caribbean International Group was one of 20 promising companies identified by the SBA to attend their prestigious “Grow Entrepreneurship” Certification Program.
About Our Founder / President
Kerwin H. George was born and raised on the island of Dominica, “The Nature isle of the Caribbean.” He was raised by a single mother who instilled an unwavering work ethic in him. Starting at age 9 he would spend all his holidays working on jobsites with his father, who was a General Contractor.
Kerwin attended Dominica State College, and completed his A Levels (UK Certification) in Economics, Sociology, and English in 1996. After graduation, he secured employment as Manager of the Shipping Department at J. Astaphan Ltd., the largest Department Store and Building Material Supplier on the island. This marked the beginning of a very successful career of over 24 years as a Procurement Management and Logistics Professional with a unique perspective on the needs and business customs of the Caribbean.
Kerwin emigrated to the United States in 1999 and secured employment as Assistant Manager of Import/Export Operations and Logistics for Caribtrans Inc., a leading Caribbean Shipping Company offering freight services throughout the Caribbean Islands. After 5 years, Kerwin joined Caribbean Commerce, Inc. as Logistics/Procurement Manager, where he spent the next 7 years continuing his in-depth immersion into all aspects of Logistics, Procurement and Import/Export Operations in the Caribbean. Finally, he returned to Dominica in 2012 where he applied all of his accumulated knowledge and experience to start his own, very successful business, Caribbean International Group (CIG).
