Company History:
The Company was formed in 1992 as Poinciana Petal Gifts in its current locationon the South side
of Bay Street. The store traded primarily in t-shirts,and souvenir items and catered almost exclusively
to the tourist trade. In 1994the store underwent a transformation and became The Big Kahuna
a surf shop which traded in surf wear, sunglasses, sandals, and souvenirs. In 1996 the company
changed hands and began a series of changes. The product line was revaluated and updated;
and the market was expanded, by offering products to local customers as well as tourists.
In 1999 the physical premises were renovated to reflect a more modern and cleaner atmosphere in
keeping with changes on Bay Street as a whole. Upon reopening in early 2000 the store was renamed
Liquid Desert. The store trades primarily in trendy resort wear, fun beach products, surf wear,
and fashion jewelry. Liquid Desert invites and entertains both locals and tourists alike to this day.
