The site is an e-commerce portal which aims to represent a one-stop shopping destination. The website allows Vincentians to get any product from any United States (US) website by a simple click of a button, with a low fee attached to the product price. No credit card or US Address is needed. Customers can shop for any product, including books, clothing, shoes, electronics. Products may be received as quickly as in one week.

Marisa Gordon, the CEO, said “MyIslandShop.com is here to establish virtual shopping as the preferred shopping vehicle for Vincentians through unmatched convenience, outstanding low fees, quality and exceptional service. We are here to deliver an experience that is both enjoyable and rewarding for all customer segments. We want our customers to shop at their own desire and save big.”

To place an order on the site, a customer goes to any US Shopping website (staples.com, bestbuy.com, amazon.com, eastbay.com, finishline.com, drjays.com, etc) and sees a product that they want.

The customer then logs on to myislandshop.com order page and enters their payment choice, full name, phone number, email, copy and paste the direct link of the product they want, the product name, color if any, size, and finally the product price. The customer then clicks the Submit button to confirm their order.

After an order is submitted, a customer service representative will contact the customer about payment arrangements and any further assistance they may need.

A direct phone number to MyIslandShop.com Centre is also available which allows a customer to call directly from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. seven days a Week. Customers also have the option of placing multiple orders as they desire. Myislandshop.com has multiple payment options which include: cash, credit cards, fee on delivery. Fee on Delivery is a payment option where customers pay for the product in advance, but pay the fee when the item arrives in their hands.

Gordon said: “This is a platform which is built to deliver outstanding customer experience with its uniqueness. Of course, all of this is brought to life by some simple, yet focused, customer practices such as being available to our customers at all times, money back guarantee, free gift weekly giveaway and more. I am confident that we will attract a large number of customers who will come on board and become MyIslandShop loyalists.”
