We are proud to have worked with Airports Fiji Pte Ltd, the main provider of air services in Fiji, to upgrade several airports across the island nation.
The project included improvements to air traffic management systems, runways and offgate aprons.
The upgrades facilitate greater serviceability, passenger capacity and safety as well as improved air connectivity for the entire South Pacific.

With tourists returning to Fiji post-COVID, investing in airport infrastructure has been essential to Fiji and the region's continued economic recovery. Over half of the projects involved Fijian companies or local subsidiaries.
Airports Fiji Pte Ltd owns and operates Nadi International Airport and manages Nausori International Airport in Suva and 13 domestic outer island airports. Airports Fiji Pte Ltd also operates traffic and airspace for Fiji, Tuvalu, New Caledonia, Kiribati and Vanuatu.
Pre-COVID, Airports Fiji Pty Ltd employed 548 personnel across its 15 airports, with the projects expected to support jobs for up to 110 local workers.
Our financing package consisted of an AUD61.9 million guarantee to ANZ Fiji for its loan to Airports Fiji Pte Ltd, and a direct AUD6.5 million loan to Airports Fiji Pty Ltd.
As of May 2024, ANZ refinanced AIFFP's loan and discharged the AIFFP guarantee.
