The Atsay Project · About

Atsay, cousin. Here’s who you’re dealing with.

The Atsay Project is a venture chartered in Wilmington, NC — now building on the ground in Port Antonio, Jamaica. Mikaveh Co. is the company that does the work. Everything we run is plain about it: real photos, real prices, receipts — and our margin sits in the open, on top, never carved out of anybody else’s price.

Who we are

One venture. One company. On the ground.

The Atsay Project is the venture — chartered in Wilmington, North Carolina, and now building where the work is: Port Antonio, in Portland, Jamaica. It’s the name over the door for everything we run — the stays, the store, the ground services, the co-ops.

Mikaveh Co. is the company underneath it — the one that signs, builds, lists, dispatches and delivers. When you deal with the Atsay Project, you’re dealing with Mikaveh Co., and the principal is Rafael Mikaveh.

Our base is 1 Murroon Drive — Suite 2 at Almond Lodge Guest House in Port Antonio. That’s not a mailing fiction; it’s where the ground work runs from — the makers we list, the properties we set up, the riders we dispatch.

We work both sides of the water: clients and family in the diaspora who need things done properly in Jamaica, and people in Jamaica — makers, hosts, riders, partners — whose work deserves a wider market than the road outside their gate.

What we do

Six doors. Pick yours.

Every line of work has its own door — same house behind all of them.

How we work

Four rules. They don’t bend.

This is how every deal, listing, run and referral is handled — whoever you are, whichever door you came through.

RULE 01

Ground truth

Real photos, real prices, receipts. If it’s on a page or in a pitch, it’s because we saw it, priced it, or hold the paper for it. No stock pictures standing in for real places, no numbers we can’t show.

RULE 02

Order-first

Customer money before stock money. Nothing is paid out upfront on promises — an order funds the work, the goods, and the run. That’s what keeps makers, riders and clients all protected at once.

RULE 03

Auditable

Every deal, run and referral is logged — who, what, when, how much, proof attached. If it happened, there’s a record; if there’s no record, we don’t claim it happened.

RULE 04

Middleman in the open

Connecting people is the work — makers to buyers, riders to orders, partners to clients. We take our margin in the open, added on top, never taken out of the other side’s price. The maker’s price is the maker’s price.
