The Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Trade, Manoa Kamikamica, say the launch of these new products demonstrates the company’s vision, commitment to excellence, and drive to create greater opportunities for our farmers and agribusiness stakeholders.

Kamikamica says they are not just celebrating kava, but also the launch of a new range of wellness products such as turmeric, layalaya (wild ginger), and ginger instant powders, these products reflect Fiji’s rich natural resources and traditional knowledge, transformed into modern solutions for global health and well-being.
