Chukka Caribbean adventures featured in Blackberry case study
Saturday, August 5, 2006
OCHO RIOS, Jamaica: In today’s busy world, it is more important than ever for businesses to stay connected and up to date on vital information. This is especially true if your business is providing adventure tours throughout the Caribbean, like Jamaican-owned Chukka Caribbean Adventures. This award winning company is currently featured in a case study that demonstrates the benefits of deploying BlackBerry.
The Chukka Caribbean Adventures case study highlights the fact that Chukka’s facilities are located throughout the Caribbean, making daily face-to-face communication virtually impossible. Thanks to the company’s deployment of BlackBerry, staff can now send and receive information in an instant; their e-mail finds them even in the jungle -- attachments and all.
“Quick and dependable avenues of communication are the key factors in any successful business venture large or small” said Alexander Melville, Finance and Information Systems Director for Chukka. “We operate tours like the Original Canopy Tour and our signature Horseback ‘N Swim from Belize to the Turks & Caicos Islands, and the Jamaican Dogsled Team takes us as far afield as Scotland and even Whitehorse, Canada in 2007 for the Yukon Quest.
"As Chukka continues to expand its operations it is essential for us to take advantage of technological advancements, and BlackBerry makes our business work.”
Founded in 1983, Chukka Caribbean Adventures is now the number one land-based nature adventure tour provider in the region, offering twenty-eight tours in Jamaica, Belize, The Bahamas, and Turks & Caicos Islands. Collectively, the operations delivered over 200,000 adventure tours to cruise and hotel guests in 2005.
