Maximizing the returns to Fiji’s ports and its shareholders is top of the priority list for the Fiji Ports Corporation Limited Board.

Chair, Shaheen Ali says a continuous review of the operations carried out by the organization will be done.

Ali adds in order to ensure that Fiji’s ports are able to serve in an increasingly dynamic and competitive business environment, a five-year Strategic Plan has been approved by the board and will be implemented.

“Some of the strategies relating to infrastructure development in this financial year, include implementation of Vessel Traffic Management System, purchase of pilot boats and Infrastructure upgrades.”

Ali adds they need to ensure that profitability and efficiency increases in the long term.
