Tropical Production is a Miami-based production company run by Monica Olman, who provides full production services to the photographic and film industries and specialises in the United States and Caribbean.

Services include location scouting, casting, crew hiring, motor home rental, transportation coordination, limo services, auto and van rental, prop sourcing or fabrication, catering, studio and equipment rental, exporting and importing worldwide, customs paperwork and brokerage coordination, talent casting, hotels and home accommodations, and everything and anything a production requires.

Monica came to the United States from Sweden in the 1980s and opened the first prop shop in Miami. The Non Stop Prop Shop became ‘the place’ to come to for all movies, commercials and still photo shoots for props of all kinds. Along with furnishing props, Monica also began providing production coordination services. At the same time her design talents demanded her time on set, establishing her as a first-rate set designer. In 2000 Monica sold the Non Stop Prop Shop in order to free up her time to devote all of her energy producing for her growing list of clients. From New York, Miami, California and all over the Caribbean, Monica can provide a production with the utmost personal attention.
