About GroceryList Jamaica
GroceryList Jamaica is a young company based in South Florida, aiming to connect the Jamaican diaspora to their families back home. Many local families rely on overseas family members in the forms of packed barrels and money transfers, to cover day-to-day expenses and so co-founders Rory Richards and Jermain Morgan created GroceryList Jamaica to address their concerns.
Richards, Morgan, and their team tackled this concerns while also streamlining the process to just a few clicks on their website. GroceryList Jamaica is not only convenient, but also faster and cheaper than most traditional remittance options.
“Barrels can take up to two months to pack, two weeks to be delivered to Jamaica, and cost thousands in customs fees to clear,” explained Morgan stating, “that’s why we are pushing our BIG BOX promotion this Christmas. You can spend less than the cost of a barrel and give your family not only non-perishable items but also fresh meat, produce and so much more.”
