Starting a business in Jamaica

15 years ago
Hello, I am new to this forum and have already found it very useful. My name is John and I am 25 years old living in the US. I own a fairly successful security company but I am essentially an Independent Contractor. I have felt the need to explore and take chances, now feels like a good time to take a change. I have been to Jamaica 4 times now and lived there for about 2 months last time in Westmoreland. I lived at Lost Beach, which is south of Little London at the South Western most tip of the Island.

Besides security I also perform services in access control/cctv/voice&data cabling/intercoms/wireless internet/satellite and most other types of low voltage systems. I've seen in my travels that there was not a
security company in Jamaica that stood out, also there is a great demand for the technology if the price is right.

I would like to bring my company to Jamaica within the next 6 months. I have started to research the process and would like to know if anyone living in JA has any input on my idea. I love to chat so feel free to shoot me an email. Thanks!
