Caroline International was launched over the summer. Managing director Michael Roe said of the relaunched distribution company: “Being an old Virgin boy, Caroline was a label I always admired, so to be offered the opportunity to be involved with the name and its rich heritage is a great honor.” Caroline Records was initially launched as a jazz and prog label in 1973, as part of Virgin Records. Caroline Distribution was founded in 1983.
