J.Kevi Group (Fiji) of Nadi launched a range of Fijian Made products at the Denarau Golf & Racquet Club in Nadi on Tuesday night.
These included stainless steel soap holders, toilet paper holders, door handles and towel hangers.

“Our relationship with Starwood Hotels has been successful with 65 EZGO golf carts purchased and quite well maintained by us.”
He said the company is now one of the largest golf cart suppliers in Fiji and sells one of the best golf carts used by golfers around the world.
“We entered the golf industry in 1995 and is one of the demanding industry in Fiji,’’ said Mr Reddy.
Starwood Fiji general manager Shane Cunnings said the EZGO golf carts has served it well over the years.
“We are a large company in Fiji and our success has been good due to the people and the companies we surround ourselves with,” Mr Cunnings said.
