Laparkan was founded in 1982 by three enterprising young friends, Mr John La Rose, Mr Terrence Pariaug and Mr Glen Khan. (Our Company is an acronym of the Founders' names). They saw a need to provide West Indians with a reliable channel to send supplies, gifts and various personal items back home to their families. In 1983, Laparkan opened its doors in Toronto and was in instant success. Word quickly spread and within twelve months, fully functional offices were established in New York, Miami, UK and Georgetown.
