In 1945, the Spooner family acquired around 300 acres of land in Scoresby, now home to Caribbean Park. In the 1950s, the family established the Caribbean Boat Factory – a successful business to this day – and built Lake Caribbean to test new boats. The much loved Caribbean Gardens and Market opened in 1976. In the 1980s the next generation of the Spooner family began developing a technology and office park that blended into the surrounding environment.
