A couple from Naroi Village in Moala travelled from their home in Lau to be part of Fiji Showcase 2025 to buy household items and products for their business back on the island.

Pita Gaunavinaka and Mariana Ranadi spent three days at Fiji Showcase and took advantage of the low prices on offer.

They spent about $5,000 in the three days, buying soap powder, furniture and other important items needed in the village.

Gaunavinaka says some items have been sent back to the island, and he will be at the Vodafone Arena again tonight to make one final round.
