 A honey farmer, who was awarded Fijian Made certification status for his product, has been encouraged to diversify his operations.

Abdul Hussein, 33, is the proud owner of Nahl Pure Honey – a homegrown operation in Rakiraki that stemmed out of his sheer craving for honey.

“My aim is to expand our honey-making operations for the international market, and identify another source of income in the agriculture sector,” he said.

“It is a bit of a challenge – coming out of COVID-19 – to identify the ideal market we could tap into.

“I’d like to get into some sort of farming that is different from honey farming.”

Mr Hussein is a university graduate in accounting and information systems.

What is one place in Fiji that is on your bucket list?

Taveuni.

I have seen pictures of the place – it’s an interesting destination.

The international dateline is another attraction.
