A team from Tanoa Hotels in Fiji embarked on a mangrove planting initiative earlier this month as a testament to the Tanoa Group’s dedication to environmental stewardship.

The initiative, led by Fiji Area General Manager Narend Kumar, was conducted on November 3 at the Yavusa Saru Historical Site at the Taiperia settlement.

“It was very pleasing to see our team from Tanoa Plaza Hotel Suva join the rest of us from the west for this worthy cause,” Mr Kumar said.

“This demonstrates our commitment and passion to green sustainable programs towards our local communities and we ensure that limiting our carbon footprints will not only benefit us but our people, the future generations and above all our guests as well,” he said.

Additionally, the group took the opportunity to provide Diwali hampers to the residents of Taiperia settlement to show their appreciation.

The Tanoa Hotel Group was also grateful to the Ministry of Forestry for providing the 300 mangrove seedlings for planting.
