10 people now have jobs following the opening of the Subzero Café & Carwash and Crew Cuts Barber Shop in Denarau, Nadi last night.
While opening the outlet, Minister for Commerce, Trade, Tourism and Transport, Faiyaz Koya says these outlets will no doubt add value and make Denarau a more attractive package to locals and tourists.
He says they need more enterprising Fijians to inspire others to step into the area of starting a business, a business close to their heart and a business which is for their family and community.
He says there are many things we can learn from this tight-knitted circle of friends who are the Managing Directors of the Subzero Cafe and Car wash and Crew Cuts Bar Bar Shop.
Koya says we can learn that a lasting business must or can be built on friendship and most importantly, trust.
He says they have a dedicated team at the Ministry which is MSME Fiji, that has been established to support the development of micro, small and medium-sized enterprises in Fiji. The Minister says the Government is committed to creating opportunities for the youth, with the recent budget initiatives that was passed by Parliament, where the focus continues on educating youth and nurturing them to become job creators instead of job seekers.
