Residents of Tavua are better placed as consumers, after the opening of a retail outlet in their municipality.
The gold mining town is home to Al Hamd Smart Living’s newest and sixth chain store.
The $60,000 investment brings with it a host of consumer choices in the latest LED lights, office furniture, contemporary prefabricated container houses from China, chic blinds, and more.
Managing director Ashfaaq Khan said 20 units of prefab, two-bedroom expandable houses, were sold locally, and more were expected to be sold in coming months.
“These handpicked prefab container homes are ISO9001 certificated, and built to my specifications,” Mr Khan said.
