Meet Andrew Roberts

QTS Bermuda Ltd

About Mr Roberts

I'm Andrew Esteban Roberts, owner/manager of Quality Tires and Services Bermuda Ltd, which has been serving Bermuda with high-quality, low-cost tires for over 15 years. 

I was born in Bermuda and raised up in St. David’s, attending St. George’s Prep, Mount Saint Agnes, Ridley College, and Universidad de las Americas in Chile. I am the current President of the St. George's Rotary Club and a Counselor for the Corporation of St. George's.

My passion for the east end runs deep in my veins, as many of my family were all somehow involved with the Corporation of St. George’s and other east end organizations. With this passion for our side of Bermuda, I offer all my knowledge and effort to revitalize St. George’s and restore it to the vibrant town it once was.

    CSG meets with Town partners regularly to review special conditions associated with work that is commencing in the Town. Works and Engineering, BELCO, Planning, SGPA, Telecoms, Marine and Ports, and the National Trust are just a few examples. The Town’s status as a World Heritage Site is always balanced with the needs of the living town. St George's has evolved over 400 years of continuous occupation, from the industrial to the information era, and will continue to do so in the future.
