66 women entrepreneurs have received Fijian Crafted licenses during the National Women’s Expo at the FMF Gymnasium in Suva.

While handing out the licenses, Minister for Industry and Trade, Faiyaz Koya says the Women’s expo and the Fijian Made Campaign are initiatives to promote entrepreneurial culture through sustainable micro, small and medium enterprises.

He says the licenses were a means to empowering women and youth for sustainable economic growth.

In 2015, the National Women’s Expo awarded 43 Fijian Crafted licenses to 43 successful women entrepreneurs, while another 83 received theirs in 2017.
