Gordon "Butch" Stewart

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Honourable Gordon "Butch" Stewart O.J, C.D is a Jamaican/British businessman and the owner and Chairman of over two dozen companies throughout the Caribbean, North America and Great Britain. Some of the most notable companies he owns are Sandals Resorts, Beaches Family Resorts, Appliance Traders Limited (ATL), ATL Automotive, ATL Motors, Business Management Ltd, The Observer, Caribrake, Hospitality Purveyors Inc (HPI) and Unique Vacations. He is regarded as being one of the most influential men in the Travel Industry and is listed as one of Jamaica's and Britains most richest men with an estimated worth of US$1 Billion Dollars. This dollar figure is difficult to substantiate due to the fact that none of his companies are public and his companies books are not available to the general public.

He is without a doubt though one of the wealthiest men in Jamaica and is perhaps second only to Jamaican/Canadian Businessman Michael Lee Chin who is the Chairman of AIC in Canada and NCB National Commercial Bank in Jamaica. Mr. Chin's is estimated to be worth US$ 2.1 Billion Dollars.
