Despite operating with a challenging global and economic environment, Fiji Ports delivered exceptional results in 2024 with the highest profit milestone of $28.41 million (net profit after tax) in the company’s history.
With that impressive work, Fiji Ports announced that all eligible staff will receive a performance-based bonus for the year 2024.
Fiji Ports Corporation Ltd’s board chairman, Isikeli Tuituku, who was chief guest at the event, said Fiji Ports recorded a net profit after tax (NPAT) of $28.41 million, enabling a dividend of $17.05 million to their shareholders.
“A remarkable result that would not have been possible without your hard work and resilience,” Mr Tuituku said.
“I want to especially acknowledge the past board chair and directors who served up to December 2024 for laying a strong foundation for this success.
This performance is not just a financial milestone. It is a reflection of strong governance, prudent investment, disciplined operations and most importantly – the commitment of our people.”
Corporation’s CEO Vajira Piyasena said the year 2024 was one of the most remarkable achievements for the corporation.
“Despite operating with a challenging global and economic environment, we delivered exceptional results through the ongoing commitment of our managers, unit heads, and staff across the organisation.
“I am also pleased to share that FPCL previously recorded NPAT of $28.03 million in 2019 and $28.41 million in 2024 – both marking the highest profit milestone in our company’s history.
“These results did not come easily – they were earned, through hard work and shared belief in our vision to be the smart, green gateway for trade in the Pacific.
“Each of you played a vital role in this success story, and here we recognise that.
Under the leadership of our chairman and board, and with a fully established executive management team now in place for the first time since FPCL’s divestment in 2015, we are ready to enter a new era of transformative growth.
We are more than a port operator. Fiji Ports is a national enabler — a catalyst for trade, for security, and for national development”.
Corporation’s manager planning and strategy implementation, Florence Nand expressed her gratitude to the former and current board members, the CEO, the executives, management and staff for their ongoing support and commitment.
“While this is a celebration, it also sets the tone for what’s next.
From infrastructure expansion and sustainability goals to digital innovation and our vision for a new maritime hub — exciting opportunities lie ahead,” she said.
“With the same teamwork and passion, I’m confident we’ll achieve even greater results in 2025 and beyond.
The reward reflects the corporation’s commitment and professionalism – from operational excellence to driving innovation and sustainability across its ports.
