Fiji Pine Limited was initially established by the Government of Fiji in an effort to generate economic activities in the rural areas as well as to fully utilise “talasiga” (dry grasslands) on which Caribbean pine (Pinus caribaea var. hondurensis) was planted.
Fiji Pine Limited has established a pine plantation on the dry grassland areas of Viti Levu and Vanua Levu with a stocked area of 23,866.7 hectares as of 31st December 2017. Fiji Pine Limited is committed to increasing its stocked area estates in an effort to ensure the sustainability of the Pine Industry. The organization is also committed to protecting culturally significant sites and rehabilitating degraded sites.
The company attained FSC™ certification for “Well Managed Forest” on 28th October 2013. Under this certification, Fiji Pine Limited has been committed to meeting all of the qualifications to be certified as a Well-Managed Forest that is environmentally appropriate, socially beneficial and economically viable.
