14,000 litres of fuel arrive in Taveuni amid ongoing shortage
A truck carrying about 14,000 litres of fuel from Pacific Energy arrived in Taveuni this morning, providing some relief to residents and businesses affected by the ongoing shortage.

Suncity Supermarket owner Rohil Chaudhari confirmed the arrival of the shipment to fijivillage News.

The shipment includes unleaded petrol, diesel, premix and kerosene.

It comes after Chaudhari worked with Pacific Energy to secure the fuel as shipping disruptions left Taveuni facing shortages.

Chaudhari had earlier said the fuel would be distributed manually using measured containers because his service station pumps remain out of operation following a fire.

He says customers could initially be limited to about 20 litres each so more people can access fuel.
