From the very beginning, owners Fitzroy and Aruna have set out to bridge the gaps between their regions by sourcing specialty ingredients from Africa, the Caribbean, and Latin America.

Caribbean Spice is an Afro-Caribbean grocery store that provides products from the diaspora to the Pacific NW, with the goal of connecting Portland and beyond with a piece of home. Originally inspired by the local markets in Kingston, Jamaica, Caribbean Spice has since grown into a staple in the city where you can find affordable ingredients for a variety of traditional dishes.
