Fiji bodybuilder Jordan Pillay is indebted to his sponsors, Flour Mills of Fiji Foods Limited and Shop N Save Supermarket as he recalls he had to dig into his savings to take part in certain bodybuilding championships.

FMF and Shop N Save have come on board to fulfill his dreams as he represents Fiji for the first time.

He says after his previous tournament he has gone back to the drawing board and got further help from experts in this game to help him improve his standing and he is glad that they have accomplished that.

Pillay says he is very humbled and appreciative that the sponsors were able to make things happen for him to represent his country at the world championship level because most of the time he could not compete because they were down financially.
