History

The Miss Turks and Caicos Universe Beauty Organization is owned by Kazz Forbes. The Miss Turks and Caicos Islands Beauty Pageant was first held in 1979. Forbes held a two-year memorandum of understanding with the Turks and Caicos Islands Tourist Board. He did not wish to renew after its tenure.

In 2016, the Miss Turks and Caicos Pageant had new organizers. To date, the Miss Turks and Caicos Beauty Pageant was last managed by Olincia Misick; however, she was unsuccessful in producing a national or international pageant title.[1]
