Star Hospitality Company Limited is set to embark on a significant growth phase after 13 years in the supply and manufacturing industry. The company, founded by Anand Kumar, began with minimal equipment and support, yet has expanded to meet the demands of various clients, including sportswear and hospitality contracts.
Kumar expressed confidence in the company’s trajectory, stating, “Now we are peaking in the market, and definitely for the next five years, we will be one of the leading sportswear suppliers in the country, definitely looking forward to the international suppliers as well.” This optimism comes despite the numerous challenges they have faced and is accompanied by plans for expansion into international markets.
In a message of encouragement for small businesses, Kumar urged entrepreneurs to seek support and learn from those with more experience to navigate obstacles effectively. This call to action echoes sentiments expressed by leaders in the industry who emphasize the importance of resilience in the local manufacturing sector.
Similar to other businesses that have recently announced expansions, such as Tau Sports Limited, which inaugurated a new outlet at MHCC complex in Suva with a robust investment of nearly $500,000, Star Hospitality’s growth plays a role in bolstering the local economy and enhancing community support. Tau Sports, a notable player in the sportswear market, also aims to expand its reach while emphasizing the significance of local entrepreneurship.
As Star Hospitality moves forward, its commitment to becoming a leading supplier not only serves its business interests but also fosters a hopeful narrative for growth and opportunity in Fiji’s manufacturing landscape, encouraging other local enterprises to pursue similar paths of innovation and resilience.
