Caribbean Products

What Caribbean Products does

Caribbean Products, LTD is a privately held, Maryland-based US food manufacturer founded in 1989 that produces frozen Jamaican-style patties under the trademarked Global Delights brand. Its product line is narrow and SKU-disciplined: three hand-held turnovers — Jamaican Style Mild Beef, Spicy Beef, and Chicken — each 4.5 oz, consisting of island-style-seasoned filling wrapped in a light, flaky, oven-baked crust. Manufacturing takes place in a USDA-inspected, SQF Food Safety Code-certified (Food Manufacturing Edition 9 / Quality Code Edition 9) facility, with a 1-year frozen and 7-day refrigerated shelf life and packaging designed for both retail shelf (two display trays of 12 individually wrapped patties) and food service (reclosable cartons of 20 patties).
