The Caribbean
over 25 years of association

Buckinghams has been supplying tankers and other things to the Caribbean area since 1994. A long association indeed, based on our clients exacting requirements and supplying quality products that has resulted in repeat business year after year, and sometimes a longer period between orders. Below is a catalogue of of what has been supplied over the years, not a complete inventory but nevertheless interesting.

1994

The very first tanker Buckinghams supplied to the Caribbean was a 1200 gallon Vacuum Cesspool Tanker mounted on a Leyland FA50, for a private contractor in Barbados. Pictured here is our stores before shipping.
