Caribuy, originally created to bring Caribbean, products and services to our visitors all over the world at competitive prices and with a CCN Group supported guarantee of satisfaction has apparently been acquired by another business as their URL suggests.

This however has been the state since late May 2006 when the message appeared. Calls to the contact information listed is still picked up by a voice mailbox at the Express House but with the online inactivity I would say the corbeauxs have circled.

The question lingers though on why was Caribuy unsuccessful when it choose to create a consistent marketplace for international shoppers to receive local goods to allay any fear of identity theft of privacy concerns. Added to that it was backed by the CCN Group, one of the largest public companies in the region.

Was it poor management, ahead of its time, under capitalized? If you have the scoop give me a shout as other businesses could learn from these situations.

In the meanwhile here are some commemorative website and team images.
