OUR HISTORY

In 2004, a simple question sparked a revolution. From a humble 'What if' emerged Kameleon Enterprises and its subsidiary, Fort International. Operating initially from a garage, this space served as both our corporate headquarters and sole distribution hub, with just one product in our inventory: the humble trash bag. Little did we anticipate that this very product would catalyze the foundation of our company's Social Responsibility initiative, including our esteemed private scholarship, The King Solomon Award (KSA).

Driven by the ethos of 'What if,' our company's inception was rooted in a fundamental principle: Customer First!

Despite every organization, regardless of its scale, being a customer within the supply chain, a noticeable lack of customer care and attention to detail spurred us into action. Thus, the 'What if' question became the cornerstone of our modus operandi.

We expedite service by offering same day delivery?

We improve the buying experience by centralizing purchasing and expanding our product lines?

We tailor our services so each partner doesn't have to worry about stock and shortages, and they can focus on their main responsibilities, their customers?

We approach our clientele not just as new revenue, but also as business partners?

Francois Damian Aristhomene Martinez, our Founder, is an Entrepreneur, Writer, Philanthropist, BJJ Enthusiast and Lifeaholic.

He has over 20 years of B2B experience, and with such, recognized the lack of customer care, and inability many of the largest suppliers face in order to meet demand expeditiously, due to antiquated infrastructure and limited range.

When he is not coming up with another idea on how to better improve the mechanics of the Operation, you can find him on the mat practicing Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, or traveling with the purpose of gaining inspiration for his upcoming projects.

He believes in investing in people as much as in yourself, for no one can achieve their true potential alone, as sometimes the key to your own greatness lies in assisting others achieve their own.
