Customers of S Nagindas in Vanua Levu will no longer travel to Savusavu to shop after a mini outlet was opened at the main street of Labasa Town yesterday.

Company general manager Amit Khatri said it was also good news for those who shop online through the snagindas.com website.

He said they have received numerous requests from the people of labasa on social media to open a store in town.

“Our new store will cater to a range of products, new releases, and special offers which our customers can take advantage of,” Mr Khatri said.

“We have seen growth in Labasa, therefore we have acquired space in the new Damodar Complex project.”

S Nagindas largest store will open next year at the new Damodar complex.

The company spent about $75,000 to open the Labasa store.

“We feel very honored,” he said.

“Our company has been investing in development and we are glad that after the opening of the Savusavu branch in 2020, we have now provided more opportunities to the people of the North to shop.”

The new outlet provided 12 new jobs. It will open six days a week from Monday to Saturday.
