Hon Gordon “Butch” Stewart. Founder, Chairman of the ATL and Sandals Group, marketing maverick and the Caribbean Peer Awards Brand Master for 2010.

Gordon “Butch” Stewart began his career selling air conditioners door-to-door, and, in 1968, founded Appliance Traders Limited, a booming appliance business still in operation today in Kingston, Jamaica.
