Trade Management Services
TMS began as a bold vision rooted in a simple idea: to bridge the gap between brands and their customers through data-driven insights and impactful trade marketing solutions. Founded in May 2006 by Nigel McFarlane, TMS has grown from a small operation into one of Jamaica’s most trusted Business to business (B2B) partners in the fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) industry.
From its early days, TMS recognized the power of understanding what truly drives retail success. Initially specializing in trade audits for retailers, the company soon found itself responding to a deeper need—clients didn’t just want data; they wanted solutions. Listening closely, TMS began expanding its service offerings to include sales and merchandiser training, consumer surveys, mystery shopping, etc. and other in-depth market intelligence activities.

Driven by passion, innovation, and a commitment to excellence, TMS has built a legacy defined not only by longevity but by impact. With nearly two decades of experience and a deep understanding of the Jamaican retail landscape, TMS continues to shape how brands connect with consumers—ensuring every product placement, promotion, and people strategy leads to market success.
