Gerard Rique
Manager – Innovations and Solutions Ramps Logistics Limited
Gerard Rique leads innovation and product development at Ramps Logistics, a supply chain technology company headquartered in Trinidad and Tobago, with operations across the United States, the Caribbean, and Latin America. He is responsible for the company's technology portfolio, including MAWI, its AI-powered trade compliance platform, and CC360, its shipment visibility solution.
Gerard's work sits where operational experience meets technology. Rather than building in isolation, he develops products alongside the brokerage, freight forwarding and project logistics teams whose daily work defines the problems worth solving. This approach has produced tools shaped by real operating conditions rather than theoretical requirements. Under his direction, Ramps has extended its technology capability from the Caribbean into the United States market, responding directly to the compliance pressures created by shifting global tariff regimes.
He leads a development team that pairs software engineering with deep customs and trade expertise, and works closely with clients across the energy, manufacturing and distribution sectors to understand where regulatory complexity slows their operations. Gerard's focus is on turning that complexity into something measurable and repeatable: improving accuracy, removing manual effort, and giving trade and compliance teams the clarity to make faster decisions in increasingly volatile markets.

AI From the Inside Out
Tariff volatility has outgrown manual classification. Ramps Logistics responded by becoming AI-native, building its own compliance automation inside its customs brokerage rather than buying it, filing entries daily across Trinidad, Guyana and the United States while developing the platform that now does the work.
