Panpac Distributors, the sixth company, which is already based in New Zealand will also be participating at the show.

Investment Fiji, with the support of Fiji Trade Commission in Australia and New Zealand has provided the opportunity to these six companies to promote their products at the Fiji Booth.

Investment Fiji Chief Executive Kamal Chetty says the event is an ideal platform to target key buyers and distributors.

Chetty says they aim to assist and guide these SMEs to become export-ready and meet international standards.
