The New Zealand-Fiji Business Council was given assurance by Prime Minister Sitiveni Rabuka that return on investment is guaranteed in Fiji.
While speaking at a breakfast event at the Cordis Hotel in Auckland, New Zealand, Rabuka says that business in Fiji is back on track.
He says the country’s target for business between Fiji and New Zealand is about $2B, and this is based on estimates of potential growth.
Rabuka says at the moment, the worth of business between the two countries is about $1.17 billion, of which New Zealand enjoys the lion’s share of benefits.
He adds they are keen to work harder to boost our own export capacity to New Zealand.
While referring to the tourism sector, Rabuka says that visitor arrivals have increased steadily since the re-opening of the borders and are on track to returning to pre-pandemic levels.
He says the key sectors contributing to the upward growth projection are the accommodation and food services, transport and storage, agriculture, manufacturing, wholesale and retail sales, finance and insurance, administrative services, and construction and net indirect taxes.
The Prime Minister says when they market the Fijian brand as ‘where happiness finds you, ‘we mean it in every possible way, and Fiji is recovering.
