Solutions Barbados (SB) is a minor political party in Barbados. [1] It was first founded by structural engineer Grenville Phillips II on 1 July 2015, and contested the May 2018 Barbadian general election.

On 12 November 2020 following the 2020 St George North by-election, Phillips announced that he would be leaving elective politics, making no mention whether the party would continue to operate. [2]

In December 2021, after the 2022 Barbadian general election were called, Solutions Barbados stated that it would contest as a coalition with other smaller parties. Phillips himself, however, did not choose to contest for elected office. [3]

Solutions Barbados contested the 2018 general election with a slate of 28 candidates. The party received 2.7% of the votes, but failed to win any seats.
