ABOUT US

Staff

Parts & Power's staff is composed of staff from a variety of countries including St. Kitts, the US, the UK, Trinidad, Dominica, St. Vincent, Guyana and Canada, with over 50% of us from the British Virgin Islands. Our varied backgrounds give us a great depth of experience and helps with our sensitivity to the needs of our customers. The common thread that unites us as a family is our keen interest in Customer Service and Customer Satisfaction. Please, take some time to read our customer testimonials.

To be able to cope with this demanding environment, regular bi-weekly training and frequent off-island training courses are taken, allowing us to warrant everything we sell. We close for one day in November every year to discuss how we, as a company, can do a better job of serving our customers.
