Zilroo for Jamaica: Why We Built It

Jamaica has no shortage of talented plumbers, electricians, landscapers, handypersons, and other skilled professionals. But finding the right one has always been hit-or-miss—word of mouth, ads on lampposts, or hoping someone knows someone.

We built Zilroo to change that.

The Problem

For customers: It's hard to compare options. You might get one quote from a friend's contact, but how do you know it's fair? How do you know the person is reliable?

For professionals: Getting steady work means relying on repeat customers and referrals. Reaching new customers is difficult, especially outside your immediate area.

Our Solution

Zilroo is a marketplace built for Jamaica. We focus on:

• Parish-based matching – Find pros in your area, or pros find jobs near them
• Quote comparison – Up to 3 quotes per request so you can compare fairly
• Privacy first – Phone numbers and addresses stay protected until you're ready
• In-app messaging – All communication in one place, with a clear record

Built for Jamaicans

We understand the local market—from how people describe jobs to how professionals price their work. Our platform is designed with Jamaica's 14 parishes, local preferences, and growing digital adoption in mind.

What's Next

We're starting with core home and business services: plumbing, electrical, landscaping, handyperson, and more. Over time we'll add payments, professional verification, and a mobile app.
