ABOUT SHIPPING AND FIJI:
The nation of Fiji is located in the Pacific Islands and is the most populas nation in the Pacific. Fiji is a small nation located in the South Pacific Ocean. It consists of over 330 islands, and its main centers are Suva, which is the capital city, and Lautoka, which is the largest container shipping port . Although Fiji does not have a large population – around 900,000 people – it does have a thriving economy driven by tourism. Fiji became an independent country in 1970 after nearly 100 years of British rule. A series of coups (1987, 2000 and 2006) slowed Fiji’s progress to its current parliamentary democracy under the 2013 Constitution of Fiji. Fiji’s 51-seat unicameral parliament will be expanded to 55 seats following the 2022-2023 electionThe Republic of Fiji, as it is correctly known is an archipelago of approx. 322 islands, with an Exclusive Economic Zone of 1.26 million square kilometres. Fiji has a population of about 900,000 people. Fiji’s major languages are English, Fijian and Hindi, and its major religions are Christianity, Hinduism and Islam.
Lautoka Port is the busiest port in Fiji, handling a total of 2 million TEUs per year. It has two container terminals which house more than 30 berths and are equipped with advanced loading and unloading facilities. The port also facilitates transnational trade, as well as dealing in commodities like wood, fish, and minerals.
The history of the port dates back to 1832 when it was first established as a British trading post. Since then, Latouka has undergone major developments which have allowed it to become one of the most important ports in the South Pacific ocean region. It is well-connected to several other ports around the world and contributes significantly to Fiji’s economy.
Fiji is an important trading hub in the South Pacific region thanks to its history and infrastructure. The Port of Latoka plays an integral role in this, handling millions of TEUs each year and facilitating transnational trade.
