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 renew after its tenure.
In 2016, the Miss Turks and Caicos Pageant found new organizers, including Olincia Misick. The pageant, however, did not produce a national or international pageant title for several years.[1]
