Who We Are...

FiWiShops.com started in 2015 as just a concept and an idea to help those in Jamaica with the means to sell products online, without worrying about hefty cost associated with such a venture.

We spent 3-4 years learning about the industry and understanding the dilemma of our demographic, the regular store owner.

After doing business ourselves with locals from other parts of the region such as The Bahamas, Trinidad & Tobago, The Cayman Islands, amongst others, we came to find out that this dilemma was not only focused around Jamaica, but across the region at large.

That is when we decided to work on making it a platform for the Caribbean. Where customers and vendors can shop & sell online worry-free.

For far too long, we in the Caribbean have been left out of the major perks of the information age, and e-Commerce is one such sector that we believe can be a pivotal part for all Caribbean citizens.

FiWiShops.com provides persons from all walks of life the ability to access e-commerce facilities and sell a wide range of items to an even wider range of audiences, via many methods.

We are especially proud to offer an Auction based selling system. Vendors can upload there items, set a minimum purchase price, set an end date and watch customers bid for your items. This is especially catered to our Craft Vendors, Painters, Sculptures, etc, that usually rely on visitors or passers by to see and potentially make a purchase. This platforms affords them the ability to get great prices for there art work as well appeal to a broader market base, in the Caribbean and by extension the rest of the World.

Customers can shop worry free knowing all Certified and Verified Vendors will be marked with a seal of approval and as a added measure of security, all funds will be held until items are delivered and marked as such to ensure buyer satisfaction.
