Manufacturing

& distribution

Audit, tax and operational-finance support for producers and distributors across the region.

Caribbean manufacturers and distributors operate on thin margins with import-dependent inputs, energy costs, logistics friction and retail concentration. Working-capital discipline and clean compliance are not optional.

We work with food and beverage producers, light manufacturing, assemblers, importers, wholesalers and distribution networks on audit, cost and inventory accounting, tax, customs matters and expansion financing.

Sector pressures

  • Imported-input costs and foreign-exchange exposure
  • Energy and logistics cost inflation
  • Inventory, wastage and working-capital control
  • Retail concentration and trade-term negotiations
  • Standards, labelling and product-safety compliance
  • Export-market access and CARICOM rules of origin

Regulators and oversight

  • Bureau of Standards / national standards bodies (e.g., BSJ; CROSQ regionally)
  • Ministries of Industry/Commerce and manufacturers’ associations (e.g., JMEA)
  • Customs agencies — duties, drawbacks and rules of origin
  • Environmental regulators — waste, effluent and permits
  • Tax authorities — GCT/VAT, SCT and customs-bonded regimes

Who we serve

  • Food, beverage and agro-processors
  • Light manufacturing and assembly operations
  • Importers, wholesalers and distribution networks
  • Pharma and consumer-goods distributors
  • Export-oriented producers
  • Family-owned and PE-backed manufacturers
