Company Profile

Since 2010..
Now in our 15th year

From web agency to digital agency, Forward Multimedia has grown tremendously since inception in 2010. Now after fifteen years, our company has one of the largest client portfolios among our peers in Trinidad & Tobago— at least 80 unique clients, with an unparalleled 100+ live websites in our charge, managed by a team of around 20.

While the original plan to remain a boutique company with a handful of clients, growth was steady and organic… and ultimately inevitable, even with the deliberate strategy being not to advertise.

Our growth can be attributed to our way of doing business, which is putting the client first, with the belief that the financial part will take care of itself. Forward Multimedia is shy about discussing money and pricing, hence the reason for publishing all pricing. We prefer to discuss solutions, and specifically yours, while drawing from our more than a decade long experience on the ground and in the trenches.

Today our work speaks for itself; our client and portfolio grew to its size because nobody left, which means they’re happy here. We have diverse range of clients, from national brands like The Nut King, JTA Supermarkets, Nutrimix Feeds, Pepe’s; governmental institutions like Central Bank Museum and Agricultural Development Bank (ADB); to many lesser known companies who are just as important to their customers and who get the same attention.

Mission Statement

To encapsulate our mission into a brief statement. Our aim is to provide digital services to businesses in Trinidad & Tobago, the Caribbean, and beyond, where the primary focus is the needs of the client, regardless of their size or stage of growth. Our goal is always to provide best advice and value while delivering the same quality of service to all clients, so that they are always confident and reassured that they are in good hands.

Our Products
& Services

Forward Multimedia provides a comprehensive suite of online offerings with the goal of being a complete digital service. This is based on the premise that a company’s online presence is a network of dependent channels, which require a cohesive strategy for optimal results. It is for this reason that we do not generally promote à la carte services… we strive to deliver a complete solution.

When a client is onboarded, we immediately set up a collaboration channel (usually via WhatsApp) with our team and the client’s, for fast and efficient communication.

Our primary products
and services at a glance are:

  • Website Design
  • E-Commerce Stores
  • Social Media Marketing
  • Video Production
  • Search Engine Optimization
  • Website Hosting
  • Website Maintenance
  • Website Development
  • Payment Integrations
  • Mobile Apps
  • Graphic Design

The Forward Multimedia Team

The Forward Multimedia team is well led by senior members in charge of overall operations, web, and social media. Our steady growth has forced us to tighten many areas in order to improve efficiency and adapt to the ever changing market.

Being a digital business, our team enjoys the perks of working at home. Our work flow is result-oriented, not time based—  no one has to punch a clock or report to work at 8am; our team is free to manage their life and work, while treating work seriously, and are all happier for it.
