Company

Company overview

Consolidated Water Co Inc turns seawater into drinking water by forcing it through membranes that remove salt, a process called reverse osmosis. Its subsidiary Cayman Water sells and delivers that water by pipeline to homes and businesses in Grand Cayman’s Seven Mile Beach and West Bay areas. It also supplies water in bulk to government utilities in the Cayman Islands and The Bahamas under long-term agreements; the utilities distribute it to their customers. Together, direct and bulk water sales account for most revenue.

The company also earns revenue from designing, building and operating water, wastewater and reuse facilities for other owners, principally in the United States. These services are its largest individual revenue line, with most service revenue coming from operations and maintenance rather than construction. A smaller manufacturing business sells and services specialized water-treatment equipment.

The Bahamas’ Water and Sewerage Corporation is a major customer, and its payment delays have strained the Bahamian subsidiary’s liquidity. Cayman Water’s exclusive retail rights cover a defined service area whose expansion requires government approval. It currently operates under a government concession preserving its existing license terms while it negotiates a replacement with OfReg, which is seeking changes that could substantially reduce retail earnings.

Consolidated Water's results hinge on Caribbean water contracts, Cayman license terms and U.S. project execution, with Veolia a key rival in bulk desalination and water-infrastructure services.

  • Jacobs Solutions competes with Consolidated Water's PERC and REC subsidiaries for U.S. clients paying to develop and manage water-treatment and reuse facilities, offering design, construction management and long-term operations. Watch Jacobs' water-project wins and operating contracts: they show competition for work in Consolidated Water's services business, where operations and maintenance revenue grew in 2025 while construction revenue fell.
