A 19-level mixed-use commercial landmark is under construction in Suva’s central business district that is set to become a cornerstone of the capital city’s next-generation urban growth.

The Tabua Tower project by Frontier Investments Ltd combined premium commercial space, corporate hotel, residential apartments and retail offerings designed to meet demand from modern businesses and forward-thinking investors.

At the core of the development are six strata office floors, each offering approximately 900sqm of open plan; and the layouts are said to be ideal for headquarters, consultancies, law firms and owner-occupiers seeking titled ownership in a landmark building.

Architect and project promoter Vijay Sharma said this was a rare opportunity to secure commercial floor space in the Suva CBD.

“We’re introducing strata-titled office ownership in a premium tower, something the Suva market has not seen before and it’s exactly what today’s professionals and firms are seeking,” Mr Sharma said.

He said Tabua Tower would incorporate energy-efficient lighting, passive ventilation, water-saving fixtures and a façade system engineered for thermal performance.

“Our vision is not just about aesthetics. It’s about building something that’s sustainable, smart, and future-ready – a development that represents the next chapter of Fiji’s commercial evolution.”

Tabua Tower, which will be positioned on Forster Street, will include secure basement and podium parking, 24/7 security, statement lobby with retail spaces.

Frontier Investments Ltd had also called for expressions of interest for a limited release of the strata-titled floors and exclusive investment opportunities.

Beyond owning an office floor, investors can also acquire equity shares in Frontier Investments, allowing participation in the broader financial returns of the project.

This structure, he said would be appealing to diaspora investors, regional business groups and institutional partners.

Construction is now underway with project completion expected in the first quarter of 2028.
