While enroute back to Fiji from Panama via the United States, Prime Minister Sitiveni Rabuka met with FIJI Water owners Stewart Resnick and his wife Lynda Resnick.

FIJI Water says it was also a unique opportunity to hear first-hand from Resnick on his company’s global operations including some of FIJI Water’s future expansion plans, as well as agriculture, marketing and philanthropy.

The US$6 Billion Wonderful Company is the parent company for FIJI Water as well as other subsidiaries such as Wonderful Pistachios, Wonderful Halos, Wonderful Seedless Lemons, POM Wonderful, JUSTIN, Landmark, and JNSQ wines.

Rabuka also met senior executives of FIJI Water in Los Angeles and was later welcomed to a dinner by the Resnicks.

He later visited NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory followed by a tour of the Resnick Sustainability Institute at Caltech in LA.

The Prime Minister is expected to return to Fiji tomorrow.
